so long since i saw you
so long since i felt you
so long since you've been gone.
and i miss you.
more than you know.
so long since we talked
so long since we shared
so long since we touched
and i love you
more than you know.

I miss you today, even though I shouldn't
I can say it, even if you couldn't
The loneliness wandered in
And the feelings of inadequacy begin
My love is deep and my soul is true
And I am useless without you...
Why would God show me this beautiful love
If it was not blessed from up above?
The words echo-they cannot be unspoken
Two years later and I’m still broken
No trust to give and no love to live
The light I had was not mine to give
This light I had is no more
And darkened is my inner core…

The darkness falls
I sit and wait
Wait for the light
that will never reach mee
The spark of hope
to uplift me
I falter, won't you save me?
Another day come and gone
anthor night wasted.
I don't dare sleep
afraid of what will wake me.
Out of body, out of mind
I need to rest my weary mind
close my eyes.
If I do I'll be gone
never to come back.
I watch as you all look down.
I try to speak but no sound.
I try to touch you but I'm faded.
I'm gone, I can only watch, my hearts breaks
I'm dead and gone..

I blame myself
I hide my guilt by my cheerful demeanor
No one seems my sadness, no one sees the pain
No one feels my shame
I should of knew better, tried harder, protected you better.
Both of us abandoned by the one we love
I was going to raise you on my own
But my blood type wouldn't allow it to be so.
A mother is to suspose to protect her child
I should of known better
I've hated myself for so long now
for years I've dealt with this alone.
Losing you was the worse thing I've ever gone through
As unbearable as the pain and going through it alone was no comparison.
The guilt over the years has finally taken a toll,
it's been tearing me apart, slowly killing me.
Your in my heart to stay
I will never forget you
But to survive for us both, I've got to let the guilt go
I realize now it's not my fault
I know now what needs to be done
So my dear sweet child I'm going to let go
but my memory and love for you will always remain...

When reaching into the depths of my soul-Be very careful!
From outside nothing is amiss, But curiosity unleashes an abyss
Winter is an unforgiving season, without a rhyme or a reason
A well of bitterness and pain, And nothing will ever be the same.
No trust to give, no love to tie, My whole life will just pass me by…
My only joys, Come from my boys,
Who will grow into men, And will be gone again…
I am not meant to be a model or a star
I have traveled a journey and the end too far.
The writer in me rejoices for my moronic choices
For the beatings makes for great readings
But They also make glaciers deep within my heart
The Ice Princess who didn't know how to start.
The freezing waters soothe my tortured soul
Numbs my pain, and makes me whole
The fight in me thrives, and burns in my eyes-
The lover in me dies but the warrior survives.

January 11, 1986 was the day I met you
We talked and laughed and shared our view
Of who we were and where we've been
And we spoke of how life could be good again
On January 26, 1986 you borrowed mom's car and off you went
To Stafford Springs as though you were sent
You called me up and asked me out
For coffee and just to ride about
Thats when our journey in life began
8 children one woman one man
There were good times and there were bad
Times of great laughter and times so sad
On June 10, 1995 we vowed to death do us part
And it was meant from the base of our heart
on Saturday morning June 3, 2010
Was the chosen day for your life to end
Your suffering is over your pain is past
You rest in peace at last at last
Someday I'll join you like in our plan
Then we'll be together forever AMEN

About this poem:
I wrote this poem when my husband passed away and it was read at his memorial

On a cold Nebraska morn
Another loney day is born
A broken gate swings in
the wind
That old heartache starts
again
She pulls herself from a
lonely bed
And drags a comb accross
her head
She pours a drink to help
her start
Wearing black pearls on a
broken heart
She reads the letters he
sent from the war
A hundred or so sprawled
on the floor
But all this is doing is
tearing her apart
Cause she's wearing black
pearls on a broken heart
She kisses his picture
hanging on the wall
As her millionth tear
begins to fall
She draws the curtains
and the tattered blinds
And locks the door for
the very last time
Such a shame she'll have to
part
With only these beads around
her heart
She drives to the plot that
bears his name
Knowing nothing could ever
be the same
She lays a wreath upon his
stone
Her final tears ..now she's
alone
In her purse there's a
sharpened knife
With this steel she'd take
her life
And she ended the life that
would never start
Wearing..black pearls on
a broken heart~

A father, a son, my great uncle, my friend
lest we forget you fought till the end
our countries hero, our countries man
stand down soldier we salute with our hand
though...
Lest we forget
the less we remember
they were not soldiers
they were our family member
A lifetime of silence
to those who fought for freedom
given the apple
in the garden of eden
Rest in piece uncle Thomas

Thunder and rain
let it echo my pain.
let the thunder roll
as it takes it s toll
my heart is broken
so let the rain give me a good soaking
let it wash away all my tears
because you are no longer here
loss is a part of life
so let the rain wash away all this strife
I forgive you
I miss you
but I know it is over so I will roll on like the thunder.

Sitting at a funeral for a friend,should I be sad?is he gone?,when you light a candle with another candle the flame lives on,perhaps I should rejoice that the world was a much better place for 61 years.
