On Bended Knee Poem, by InvisibleMan, at My poetic side

On bended knee, I honor thee.

For when I walked, you walked with me.

You've stood beside me, and held me up,

Supported me and filled my cup.

And when I fell, you helped me rise,

Never failing me, you heard my cries.

And now as an old man today,

I want you to know my love, I shan't betray.

And while my days are numbered, I do want more.

For this my love, I know the score.

I owe you much more than you'll ever know.

But I also know I need to let you go.

My heart is broken but my mind is healing.

A hope that time will bring a love revealing.

As I get on my way to let you be,

I want you to know, I honor thee.

Comment from author about the poem: Part of my healing. Finding my way forward from a life where I have felt unheard, unseen, unvalued, unloved. And with that I brought dysfunction to my life with my wife and my children. And worst of all, lost the relationship with my wife, my very best friend.
