Hoping It Will Be Enough Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Never knowing when we say Good Night to one another if
we will ever see each other again on this earth.

Hoping and praying for more time, maybe a cure to be
given just in the nick of time.

Knowing that will probably not be the case, yet holding
onto that particle of faith with all my might.

Enjoying every moment spent with you, trying not to
think of what may be coming.

Inner strength is waning more each day, wondering what
will become of me.

How will I go on holding onto fading hopes, faith even
disappearing from my grasp in times of weakness.

Finding nothing really, to hold onto anymore, just
treasuring every moment with your unconditional love.

It is the only thread of life that I have kept hold of
through all the suffering I have endured.

Not knowing just how strong it is, or when it will snap
and break, leaving you behind to grieve my passing.

Forgetting self, spending many moments thinking and praying
for you alone, not wanting you to suffer because of me.

Continually talking and laughing with you, trying to keep
your spirit vibrant, it is the only thing left to me now.

Hoping and praying that it will be enough to keep you
safely living the rest of your life for me.

Please never forget my undying and unconditional love for
you that I will forever keep in my heart, even after we
are separated from each other's lives.
