The sadness creeps into my eyes making them moist, It climbs down my throat, a big lump that loiters, If I could gather it in my arms, I would gladly throw it to the wind,īut it hovers in all it’s nakedness, emotions laid bare. Oppressive, almost tangible, impossible to ignore it there,
There is a tragic sadness that hangs in the air today, The first of these poems is called Sadness. Hopefully I will be able to write on a more cheerful note in the not too distant future. My two WordPress Blogs and the amazing WordPress community helped keep me going through the most difficult time in my life. I am trying to get back into the swing of things and decided to post some of the poems I wrote the year or so before Brian died, when I knew he wasn’t going to make it.
Friends and family have been fantastic but the feeling of loss is still unbearable. I have found it extremely difficult to get back to anything near normal, whatever normal is now.
At the same time both parents suffered with ill health and my father died the year before Brian. Some of you will know that my husband Brian passed away at the beginning of last year after struggling with cancer for four years. Through the thin veil to the Otherworld. © I relight the candle, I search everywhere,īut I know he has gone back, has returned, I stand up, turn to face him, but he is not there, Or feel the chill from my arms when in my hold,ĭo remember my smile and my eyes of blue,Īnd until your day comes, I will wait for you”. “ You would not want to kiss my lips now cold, Then so quietly, he whispers softly to me. His breath on the back of my neck blows gently, The door creaks open, I can feel his closeness, Suddenly a gust, the candle dies, darkness, To see your eyes so blue if just for a while. To put your lips to my lips and to hold me tight, Please don’t forget me, come to me tonight, I await for the love of my life to come in The flame flickering madly and not very bright, Here in my room with just a candle for light, Thought I would re-post my poem Samhain Visit written in 2014 today as it is Halloween.
