May 5th.....our Wedding Anniversary

Today is
our Wedding Anniversary
May the 5th,
yet you are not here..

God took you to heaven just
before our 29th year..

I sit here alone
tears falling on my lap
as I try to write this..

I love you..I miss you
this is tearing me apart..

Tissue after Tissue
is being thrown on the floor
thinking of the years
we shared together
to think there will be no more..

Tears multiply
as I remember our vows
to honor and love
through sickness and in health
till death do we part..

Vows fulfilled
till the very end..

My vows continue
till we meet again..

Happy Anniversary
I love you !!
forever and ever..

 Infinity !!!!

Author notes

    Such a moving heartfelt write that I won't even try to comment on because only another woman who has been through the same pain can understand. A very beautiful piece of writing.

    honey...i see the dedication of love within your poem for deceased husband... they say times heals all things or at least tries to make it better for us to heal... it is now 2007 and i am sure in good spirit you have moved forward with living out your own life... i dont know if it just comes with age not experince, but for me... there is no life, if their is never a death... they are life partners.... cant have one without the other....
    i am sure you are well ahead and i am sure you are filling out not only his dreams but your own too.

    Tortured

    This piece shows such torture to your soul. It must have been so very difficult the first year after he'd passed. I'm sure it still is. Wounds do deep don't heal so easily. I hope you find it in you to find happiness again. Hugs!

    This emotion, poem, piece... is very heart wrenching.
    I am sending you a million hugs, followed with tissues.
    The poem made my tears flow like crazy and they still are, but I know that is no constilation to what you must be going through.

    Incredibly Touching

    I love this beautiful poem dedicated and so deep and real emotions ... which you have found the perfect flow of words. I am so sad for you, I know it has been a year or so now, by the date on your author's notes, but I am sure your love is still as strong...I hope the pain has eased up, and the wonderful memories you have take the place of the pain. I love this write. Very beautifully written. God Bless!

    28 years is a good time to spend together, but one wishes it would have been much longer. We just celebrated our 36 in December and hope we make it to 50 for sure. Lovely poem you have penned here - very heartfelt and sentiments well expressed.

    This is so sad but beautiful at the same time and my heart truely goes out to you. My grandparents we married for 42 years when my grandfather passed away and I know this is exactly how she feels too. Its still hard to visit the house with him gone, its like part of her is missing. You are blessed to have had someone who you obviously adored and as I prepare to be divorced and marry my partner in the near future I am praying that this time it is for life and not the disaster of my previous marriage. Best wishes to you and keep writing. Claire

    Wow this was very inspiring. I am getting married on 7-17-07 and I am beside myself with glee! It is truly amazing that you were with your husband for 28 years, I'm sure they were wonderful years too. And I am sorry to hear that you lost him. However I know that you must be comforted by the memories you share with him. I do hope to have such time with Brent. Great write.

    is written like this..---I Love you !! forever and ever..Infinity!!!!...perhaps being a bit more adult like would benifit you when commenting on others poetry ..A write it's self has more meaning then any extra explamation points that may be added to ones write..and as for my entry to your contest..

    Poor thing, I'm sorry for your loss.
    Overall, this was a moving read, however the ending simply didn't fit. Where before you were in pain, and deeply serious, the ending sounded like something written by a child, like "I love you times infinity!!!". The line itself wasn't that bad, but perhaps it was the multitude of exclamation points which turned me off.

    Thank you for entering, and good luck.

    I saw a contest here about what were you doing on May 5, and I thought of that as I read your poem, and a tear slid down my face. What a paridigm shift for me as well. It was my birthday, May 5. It was a day that was made very special here on all poetry with a contest held in my honour. To top it off, I even got a special new "smiley" of a bird because of my passion of birds and I share them on my author page. This is all just background information to help you understand the shift in thought I had as I read your poem. I am not saying I felt guilty about my grand day, I am saying that suddenly I was very aware of your day. I remember having days like that. I never lost a husband, but I have lost people very dear to me: my father, three grandparents, and a best friend. None of it is the same as a husband, but losing a loved one is hard. I also knew that around me, people continued to live, how could that be??? Now I know.

    Please accept my sincere empathy

    I am so sorry. The pain you are feeling must be unbearable. We are so lucky when we find someone that is our soul partner, ourlover and friend. I have been married coming on 26 years. Take each day as it comes, take time to grieve and say goodbye. In time you will be able to look back on his life and smile.
    This was such a beautiful write, I am so pleased I clicked on it. Best wishes to you.

    Absotively, posilutely wonderous!

    I love how people try to always be better than someone else. I've read and reread this poem, and I don't see how on earth you could make it better. This poem is truly from your heart, and a poem like that is its own perfection, the emotion, the love, the pain behind it gives it it's own rhythm. Like a running river. Doesn't always run the same way, yet it always flows...

    I love this poem, very very sad, and yet I could feel the love all the way down to my toes. Excellent write. I'm so very sorry for your loss, dear. I can't say that I understand, because I don't. But I can say that I know what it's like to lose someone close, as we all do. Hold your head high, love. Everything happens for a reason.

    When a poem flows from the soul it is all the flow it needs, when you loose someone that you spent so much of your life with its almost impossible to comprehend life any other way. The deeper the scar the longer the healing and often placing words on to paper is just a small part of that process. I am an advocate of critical review but there is a time and a place for everything, and what possible critique could be levelled at a piece that has been written in Tears of Love. I fail to understand the supposably intellectual tags that are placed on the assembly of thoughts that poetry is. Nothing more nothing less than pieces of us this was and is an wonderful tribute well done

    Sad

    After reading a number of pieces. I just clicked this poem and suddenly my heart is heavy. It shows the pain that is experienced by the poet at the loss of the dear husband. It's really terrible that the loss is so unexpected and unusual. The intimacy that is enjoyed by the couple doubles the pain and the solitude further troubles the mind. Beautiful piece that has almost made me cry for the poet. I pray to God to provide you the strength to withstand the loss.

    Uncheck the box next time perhaps? It seems you are looking for pity and praise and nothing more... It was not my intention to offend you... but there’s nothing I can do to make you un-offended. I'm words on a screen don't take it to heart -- then again you could, and fix the poem. Or you could forget everything I said and wallow in your woe.

    Its pretty. Normally I hate, hate, hate to be critical about anything that seems really emotional such as this, but I must, merely because I would want perfection for my lover, and would expect the same critique from any one of you. Your flow needs some work. I was like hmm, hmm, hmm right on this is pretty good. Then right in the middle it changes and throws things off. Nevertheless, its perfect besides that.

    sadly beautiful

    God bless your heart girl. There is nothin in this world that will fix this kind of longing. Its as if you just almost crave his presence. this poem(beautifully done by the way) describes the loss of one's husband just as I have imagined it would be: debilitating almost, crippling. i know these arent positive words to lift you up but its just that my husband has been gone on a job for 6 weeks now and we are as about as close and in love as you two were. And I just can't imagine the heaviness, sadness that your heart feels right now. The only thing that I know that will ease your grief and longing for him is time. He would want you to be ok, he wouldnt want you to let this end your wonderful spirit, that would be 2 tradgedies instead of just 1. I will be lifting you up in prayer. god bless you and ease you pain. (I am going to post in a little while here, a poem I wrote for my best friend, she lost her 14 year old daughter in a car wreck in april, and I wrote her a poem; check it out when you feel like it, its very uplifting. carolyn

    How beautiful and how deeply sad this poem is. For some reason, I seem to be hitting all the tearjerkers in today's perusal of AP.

    I'm so sorry for your loss and can't even begin to comprehend how it must be to deal with that reality! May God bless and comfort you always, but especially during this time of renewed loss...

    Great job. This is a beautiful piece. I'm sorry for your loss, really I am. I know what it's like to miss someone so much and I hate it... I don't want to hurt that badly and I don't want you to hurt that badly. But it shows us how strong we are, even though we feel weak the entire time. Great job with this and I wish you well. Take care.

    You know, I always think when people say be Thankful for what you had that it sounds so trite.. No you want him not your memories. And I do not blame you a bit. I got all teary eyed for you.. I cannot imagine losing someone like this but I came awful close this past Dec.. I would simply tell you to keep crying until you fall asleep Sweetheart. For nothing honestly soothes the soul better than Tears. And it helps to cleanse it. Then Tomorrow pick yourself up and shower, brush your hair, kiss his picture, and go eat where you would have gone. And think.. You have been loved... I am in awe of just that fact alone Sweets.. I wish you a peaceful night of sleep, and sweet dreams of him.. And a Hug from my heart to yours.. Take Care Beautiful Lady, Catressa ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

    I can not even imagine the pain that you must be feeling. I wish I had comforting words, but I know that grief is beyond comfort when you have spent 28 years of your life with someone.

    Heartbreakingly beautiful.

    Condolences for your loss,
    But remember this my friend,
    He shall forever look down on you,
    Until your living ends.
    Reunited you shall be,
    Two lovers in embrace,
    Sadness will depart you,
    When again you see his face.
    Your words of mourning speak of it,
    The pain of all you had,
    But for his life, and for your years
    You should also be glad.
    So until you meet again,
    O'er Eros' golden shrine,
    Remember all the love you shared,
    And again you shall be fine.

    Sorry, I don't know how much that helps, but I hope it does in someways. I'm sorry for your loss. May all blessings be with you, and help you get through this.
    Luke

    To have had more years than most couples is, in and of itself a great blessing. I know that does't even begin to make up for the loss you must be feeling, but please remember to be thankful for what you had as you mourn this tragic loss, because I can tell you... 28 years... that's not a lot by some standards I suppose, but in America and in a day and age when everything is so easily disposed of, 28 years is quite an accomplishment. Bless you! Stay safe and be well.
