Each life is a blessing that doesn't last long,
And ends all too suddenly it all seems so wrong,
Yet hope keeps me going through all of my pain,
That one day I can be with you once again,
And I know that a new star in heaven does shine,
Yet I wish you were with me and you were still mine,
But sadly I know that it can never be,
Yet your spirit remains here forever with me.
My heart lies so broken no future have I,
I'm lost in a void as I gaze to the sky,
I'll never forget you as long as I live,
So much to offer so little to give,
And I know that a new star in heaven burns bright,
Amidst all the darkness a beautiful sight,
Yet I long to hold you and never let go,
If my dream will come true it shall always be so.
My tears go on falling such hurt I now feel,
My soul has been wounded and never will heal,
The blossoms of love that we shared blown away,
I live with the cold of the winter each day,
And I know that a new star in heaven does gleam,
So graceful above in the highest esteem,
Your memory lives on and it shall never fade,
For a promise of love unto you I have made.
Andrew I was blown away with this one, as it really says it all, your choice of words are excellent and one can tell this came from within your heart....... Very sad, but in ones own way a tribute....... Bonnie Collins
This one had me in tears Andrew, I lost my husband just over a year ago and I found myself writing poem of a similar nature. They were a great way of letting my sorrow out. This is super, so meaningful and poignant. Great write. Love and hugs Ernestine XXX
True love for all eternity, in life and death.. forever plus one day.. This was absolutely beautiful.. Andrew.. brought tears to my eyes.. Losing one you love is never easy.. but to feel them in your heart everyday is love's gift forever... HugsWendy
Not a poem but a whole hour of melancholy feeling! How one misses his part who has departed! The reality of pain and the finality of time! The loved one could have been anyone, as I felt, It is my father. Andrew drew my tears! yours placidly,
A masterly composition. This poem has everything profoundness, depth, lovely play of words, touching feelings and a reasonable ending. my 10
