    Two Years
    I sit here all alone today
    And try to figure out my way.
    The sky is blue, the day is sunny
    Yet I am blue, I miss my honey.

    Two years ago, she went away.
    You will get over it, they say.
    Get on with life, live in the now.
    I know I should, but don't know how.

    I seem to think of her more each day.
    I just can't forget, I can't just be gay.
    Fifty one years she was my dear wife.
    But much more than that, she was my whole life.

    And I hope you know what I want to say
    I miss her and love her more every day.
    I thought I had lived through all of the drama.
    I thought I had over come all the trauma.

    I loved my sweet darling and this I must say
    I miss her so much since she went away.
    I loved the way she would hold me so tight.
    Her every touch brought me such pure delight.

    She always knew just what to say
    To make the sadness go away.
    I miss her smile, I miss her giggle
    I miss the way her toes she could wiggle.

    I hope you know how much I miss her
    And how much I wish that I could kiss her.
    God decided to take her away
    But We'll be together again some fine day.

    Written on the 2nd anniversary of her death.

    Very Nice. Nice ending. I guess you'll never really "get over it". I why should you want to. Va con Dios (Go the way God takes you).

    Anniversaries, birthdays, places you loved are always bumping into memories. Cry and cherish them. It's only two years you are baby. My husband has been gone thirteen and I'm still a baby. It is who we are now. You asked what I meant by "you don't comment." Got me???? another typo@%^

    Made me smile...bittersweet. She was a lucky blessed woman to have a love such as yours.

    She must have been a wonderful person. I can feel the passion and longing in each word you've written. Sorry for your loss. TS

    I give this a resounding "10" ~ such a touching tribute...it may sound trite, I hope not...but this life is merely a dress rehearsal for the big show, and your wife already has her seat there, as does my Mother...and we WILL see them again, no doubt about it.

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
