[ Love Survives ] Poem by Menime Soul

This poem i wrote for the couple..a very special couple. Don't know how i did, 'coz only a sufferer knows how it feels. It's a true story which happened here few months back and was in our local newspaper, when a young man aged 27 (a school teacher) married his childhood friend and lover just an hour ago before she died out of cancer.

~Love survives ~

Spare me few more minutes,
let me be his wife.
It's not that i'm against the truth..
I know you truly have this right.

I am not meant to stay alive for long,
This truth will never sound bitter to me.
'Coz at the same time you blessed me with such a special love..
Which not many in this earth get to see.

You sent me an angel,
who loves me with all his heart.
Though he knows very well,
it's gonna end as soon as we make the start.

So there's something,
i ask you to give.
Let us be happy for a while,
and smile before i leave.

Spare me few more minutes,
let me be his wife.
It's not that i'm against the truth..
I know you truly have this right.
