He does not know
He can not see
He feels his life
Drain of meaning
She was ripped away
Far, far too soon
And he's at loss with out her
His life a somber hue
Mourning calls upon us
And death so often pries
Our life from deep with in us
Another sad goodbye
She no longer laughs
Music Stopped
It's done.
And again he sits and wonders
How to be an orphaned son.
Memories abound him.
Pictures he can not recall
Moments of his life
Thrown upon the wall
Birth and love and things
He never quite knew
Joy, love, and memories
Must now carry him through
Step by step he faces
Each day like the last
It's always just this way
When a life ends too fast.

Poetry: Death of a loved one
by Judi B
Heaven Has My Hero Now
Heaven has my hero now,
My life with you is gone.
It's changed in oh, so many ways
But yet continues
"Never"
(In Loving Memory
For my Tattooed Queen)
Taken away before your time,
The debt paid before the crime,
Left but never
The Long Wait
The leaves fell down
Upon the autumn grass;
Frailty in every shade of red...
I sat by the window for a closer
Not a day goes by that I don't think of you
Neither sunrise nor sunset that I don't hear your voice
Or miss your laugh
And
Lights shine off in the distance
Nothing but blackness appears
There is resistance
Death whispers in my ear
He talks of a life
