My Ode to You

They say that time heals all wounds. But that cannot be.
Time does not seem to be healing the pain in me.
The hurt just seems to go on.
Day after day. I feel so all alone.
Since you have gone away.
Not a breath I take that you are not there.
If only in my thoughts.
If really there is a God. Why does he not care?
To leave one of us behind and take the other.
How can that be fair?
So I must go on. To face another day.
Waiting for this pain to slowly fade away.
I never dreamed of a future without you by my side.
Nor have I ever thought I would have to live a lie.
To smile and act as if today is just a day.
To make others feel that healing is on its way.
You asked me to take your hand.
To walk with you thru life.
To be your love, to be your wife.
You said to follow you. That you would lead the way.
We laughed and we played.
Thru life's ups and downs.
Now there is just me.
And your not around.
What am I to do.
I never really knew.
How much my life depended on loving you.

Hi, Happygolucky4u,
To smile and act as if today is just a day. To make others feel that healing is on its way is often what we do in the face of loss. Sharing sorrow can lead to healing. Thank you for sharing.
