My Everything

                            It seems just yesterday
                              You were still here
                            I had someone beside me
                            To wipe away my tears

                      No one could stand in our way
                            We were invincible
                      Then my better half disappeared
                          And I became invisible

                            The days seemed long
                            The nights were longer
                          As my heart grew weaker
                        The devil below was stronger

                              My hope was gone
                            My dreams were crushed
                              And talk of death
                      Had not before come up so much

                              My home was dark
                              My job was lost
                            And Lord only knows
                          How much of me that cost

                          And so this is to show you
                            To try and make you see
                        That before you were taken away
                          You meant everything to me




Author notes

I wanted to tell the heart break of someone who had given everything to that special someone before that person's time was up. That's why the man/woman had nothing left later on. It happens to many people all the time and this is for them.

    This is a sad and heartfelt poem. Nice rhyme and good flow and tone. Deep emotional expression. Great job!
