Oh my dear husband

something I wrote years ago

Oh my dear husband
Please hear my cries
Listen to my pleas
Please come back to me

 

Oh my dear husband
I wished you didn't have to leave
You're so much in my heart
I can barely breathe

 

Oh my dear husband
Here I am once again
Crying over your marker
Anger flowing through me

 

Oh my dear husband
I will never be the same
My love for you continues
For all of eternity

Love is hard. But Good, ultimately.

. very moving and mellifluous ... and so lovingly written ... beautiful poetry ...

[Vicky Zhuang Yi-Yin]

This is such a sad poem about losing someone that the narrator cares a lot about. I'm glad I came across this. This is something that a lot of people can relate to. Good job. If this piece reflects your true feelings then I'm really sorry to hear about it. This piece makes me empathize and I love it because of that.

I hear your cries. Makes me well up reading it. I lost my son 16 years ago and can certainly relate. (btw tiny edit - you're so much... No big thing)
