My Valentine Poem

[conflicted]

After 8 1/2 years together, this past Feb was my 1st Valentine's Day without my DH. So I wrote this poem on V-Day:

 

Solemn Valentine

 

Your kisses forever washed from my lips

The only touch - of your pictures with my fingertips

No longer embracing you, but now your soul;

My beloved turned angelic, and now only memories I can hold

 

Blue skies, when I looked in your eyes;

My man who changed my world

My heart is still yours, though lost this lonely girl

Still anchored deeper with time

 

My rock is gone, no support onto me for him to imbue

So it is in my dreams where I will find you

No roses this time from my Valentine

Though severed from life, we are never apart

Rest in heavenly bliss, my beloved sweetheart.
