Poems
Nov 2014
When the Sun went Cold
My Sun was snatched from the sky
Living in a cold world no longer lit by you
My tears freeze before shattering upon the ground
Broken glass like my broken heart
Your warmth no longer warms me
I’m an empty void of nothingness, I can no longer feel
My emotions are dead, vague memories of yesteryears
I once felt so much love, so much hope, so much…
Now I only see you in dreams, if I am privileged with sleep
My eyes are swollen and my heart is heavy
I don’t want to live without you here
Oh God, why did I have to stay here?
Every day that the wind blows I look up and feel your breath upon my face
I feel your touch surrounding me
I love you ever so dearly
As I lay down to sleep, relax my mind and guide my dreams
I want to remember happy times and a joyful mind
I now live in despair
Afraid to tell people how I really feel, because if I did they’d probably commit me
My sun no longer shines
Cold world, frozen tears and endless despair
You ever tried sleeping with a broken heart
I can’t sleep in our bed….
Written a few days after my wife lost her battle to cancer.
