Who will I be
Now that I am on my own?
What will I do with my life
Now that I am alone?
Will I stay single?
Will I find a mate?
Will I find courage to love again?
Will I leave it too late?
When the bitter aftermath of your loss is over
Will I wake afresh to see the sun?
Will my heart lift and sing again with
The prospect of of a new day just begun?
Will I dance and laugh again
Or set off to see all things new?
Explore exotic place and
Do it all for you
I need to find a new purpose
Now that I am no longer your wife
Find new ways to fill my time
Re-invent my life
With you as my silent guardian
In my mind, still at my side
Steering me so gently
My true forever guide.

- Comment from author about the poem: It is now eight months since my husband died. So many unresolved questions flooding my mind. What will my future look like? When will I look in the mirror and see the happy smiling person that I used to be?

This is just lovely. I hope you find everything you are looking for.
Thank you. I hope that I will find the capacity to be the happy person that I was before this happened. I won't ever be the same as I was but I hope still happy.
