Husband Death Poem

I wrote this poem a month after my husband Roberto died on February 1.2004, it is only now that I can look at it without feeling immense pain and want to share it with others who may have had the same lost. Time it takes time.

Love Forever Lost

©  Charlene Valladares
Like A ghost I flitter through the night,
keeping to the shadows and abhorring the light.

The night camouflages and no one can see
the shadow of the person that once was me.
The days lays me bare with no where to hide,
this raw pain that I feel inside,

You are no longer of this world,
you inhabit a place of no return,
no matter the tears or how much I yearn.

All I have left is your memories,
cherish it I will do,
but I would give everything I have for one more day with you.

So I will continue on living until the day you come for me and take me away.
Love Forever Lost by Charlene Valladares @FamilyFriendPoems

I shed many tears reading this poem, but the feeling was so real for me. I would also give all that I owned, money, worldly goods just to have my love back with me for one more day. To say things to him that I forgot to say while he was still with me. He lost his 5 year fight with cancer just a year ago and I miss him more than every.
Thank you for these words.
