A Poem For a Beloved One
where would you go
that i cannot follow?
for how long must i wait
until we meet again?
what would i do
in times that i miss you?
where would i go
in times when i long to see you again?
how must i spend
the nights without you?
how do i bear
each morning that you’re not there?
shall i ever smile again?
will i ever laugh again?
will i ever face the world again
knowing that im not alone?
why must you leave me?
why must i cry these tears
when you’re not here
to wipe them all away?
why must i suffer
the empty days without my beloved?
why must i dream
without you by my side?
the days shall never be the same again
i will never be the same again
without you
the life of my soul,
the joy of my heart,
the light in my eyes,
the hope of my dreams,
the comfort of my lonely nights,
without you my beloved,
i grieve and cry,
i grope and stumble in the dark,
i weep with all my soul
i desire with all my heart
i let go of all of me that you took away with you
i keep all of you that is in me,
and will always remain in me
wherever i may go
i wait and pray and hope
i will look forward to each brand new day
thankful for all that i’ve had and will always have
thankful for the sun that shines again
believing and hanging on
believing that life will go on
it can’t help but go on
it shall go on
and in so going
there really is no end
only mornings and evenings
and life that never ever ends.

Or you may want to see my e-book entitled IN YOUR HOUR OF GRIEF (See Preview Below). I highly recommend this book to those who have suffered the loss of a loved one, it's really not easy going through such dark times alone. If you know someone who needs to be comforted and assured in their most sorrowful hours, you can also give them this book as a token of your love and support.

Wow, i find these poems so comforting. I feel really lost, my gran passed away almost two and a half years ago yet i still grieve so much. I feel so lost and empty inside, i can’t talk to people about her, its just to hard. When she died i didn’t just lose my gran, i lost my best friend too. She meant so much to me, yet all the time down the line, i’m still not ready to let go of her. These poems are so easy to relate to, wonderful words!
I lost my beloved husband on October 2nd from Pancreatic Cancer. This grief has become unbearable. Thank you for your comforting words and for the poem.
