A Chemical Death

Silence had been broken as I woke to hear your cries

Weeping helplessly, I held you tight.

Wrapped within my loving embrace, you whispered...

 

                  ~I'm sorry baby

 

Sharing a moment like no other, I knew

It wouldn't be long.

Watching as the demon took you

My pieces came all undone.

 

A man of power and of grace

With a sense of honor that so few knew.

All I ever knew of joy, contentment and peace,

I found in you.

Your Love~My Rock

 

A beautiful mess of once upon a time...

 

                  ~I'm sorry baby

 

Shallow smiles and empty eyes

I no longer hold you to your promise

Desperate for the past yet longing for a future.

 

                 ~I'm sorry baby

 

 

I miss you now as I missed you then.

Before you were dead.

 

                ~I still love you, forever...

 

Your Wife

    Again, you've brought tears to my eyes. This piece really tore at my heart... feeling the love between you both, his regrets at certain things, your loving embrace... and then... he's gone!
    You write from the heart.. and this is done with such beauty and grace!!!!
    Stunning and heartbreaking piece

      My solace comes every time I meet with the attorneys and am reassured that all will go as planned.
