Forever And Beyond.

Goldfinch60



She walked her path along a different route,

A different route from mine.

Came that day when she was left alone,

Left alone so very long ago,

Her husband passed into heaven.

Came the day that I was left alone,

Left alone not so long ago,

When my lover passed into heaven.

Our paths went on in loneliness,

Then came that day,

That day when our paths merged

And become one.

The loneliness went away

As our life became one,

One with each other

And our love for each other came,

Came into our lives.

A feeling so strong for us both,

A feeling that we know,

We know will be forever with us

As we travel our path together,

Together to infinity and beyond.

  • Comment from author about the poem: As many of you know my wife died from dementia just over two years ago, I loved and still love her very much and she will always be with me. I have met a new lady who has been a widow for thirty years and our love for each other is so strong that we just do not understand how it can be this way, but it is and we will always be together in our love for each other.

    A pull on the heart-strings.
    Coming from a darkness into a new, or renewed, light?
    All good wishes to you both.

    • Goldfinch60

      Thank you Orchi, yes we are coming into a new light but neither of us forgetting the light in our past.

        Yes, I suppose we never forget the light in the past. Same with guinea pigs. If one passes away, and needs a new companion, I don't forget the piggy that's passed away. They know too, as sentient beings.. I'm half-human, half guinea pig at times. lol.

        Spiritually polyamorous? Go for it, enjoy. Life is too short to miss out on the opportunity of happiness here. You can sort out the rest when you get to wherever you believe you will meet both.

        • Goldfinch60

          Thank you Dave. We will have nothing to sort out as we know that our passed lovers will be waiting for us and we four will go together to infinity as one.

            A truly lovely read Andy.

            No two loves are the same. Love is the greatest gift we can experience. Long may you enjoy your happiness together.

            • Goldfinch60

              Thank you d a. You are so right this love we have for each other is so different for both of us and it is so powerful between us.

              'Love Story' one of my favourite films!
              (and its score one of the most penetratingly, memorable
              up there with chariots of fire
              and gladiator, for me)
              and your poetry a perfect match,
              how your love's, blossoming
              'time of life' is juxtaposed
              with the youthfulness
              of the films characters, and yet
              that same theme
              of love: surviving
              is entwined in both narratives
              of overcoming the loss of proximity
              to such of profound wonderment, in our lives..)
              Brilliant!

              • Goldfinch60

                Most kind Mek and very much appreciated.

                So glad for you Andy - hope she reads your wonderful poems....

                • Goldfinch60

                  Most kind Lorna. Yes she does read my poems and I write for her every day.

                • Michael Edwards

                  I followed your journey here on MPS which was so touching - to think you have found another has given me a smile - so so pleased for you Andy.

                  • Goldfinch60

                    Thank you so much Michael, you are a great companion for me as well.

                    Really happy for you
                    I am pretty sure
                    It’s heaven sent
                    Best wishes for a new chapter that unfolds

                    • Goldfinch60

                      Thank you spilleron sheet, this new chapter is wonderful.
