(1.5) Going Without Peggy
 
  This is the poem that lent its' name to the book that tells the story of life, love and loss... (Breast Cancer took her from me.)

I'm going without Peggy
And it seems so strange
To be going without Peggy

So many things have changed
Since my Peggy's death,
But my love remains unchanged

She took her last breath,
Never to take another,
Passing from life to death.

And so she joins her mother,
Barely thirteen months gone,
Even in death, very like each other.

She lived, she died, it's done.
Touching so many hearts,
Mine's broken now she's gone.

Touched by Cupid's darts,
Given a brief score of years
To find and know our hearts...

So much love, so many years,
All my life has been for Peggy
For so many, but so few, happy years

And now I've lost my Peggy
And it seems so strange
To be going without Peggy

What a beautifull write penned from such a Heavy Heart... I throughouly enjoyed this from beginning to end.. Unfortunatly your imagery was done for you my friend, and may you life be blessd...... So sorry for your loss... She must have been a special angel to you and now you must share her with the man above, it isn't easy......

Absolutely beautiful heartfelt very painful words, how lost we become when our loved one passes on to the other side. I truly believe they are still with us in spirit, I know we can't see them, but there are times that you just know they're there. Listen to the whispers, you'll see what I mean. I'm so happy for you that you are able to put your true feelings down so eloquently on paper for all of us to see. It's wonderful to share your thoughts. Thankyou Karl--Melvina--
