Empty Walls & A Broken Heart
October 16, 2008
Written By: Rose Marie Rideout
look at the empty walls,
That once held many our memories,
Of another time in our lives,
When there was you and me.
One of the many brighter days,
When happiness was what we knew,
Those were the days when we were blessed,
Dear when there was just us two.
Now the walls are dark and dreary,
Nothing hangs there anymore,
I couldn’t bear to look at the memories,
It’s you dear I will always adore.
My heart it has been broken,
Never more to be repaired,
For you are gone and not returning,
The only one for me who cared.
I will always have that love,
I’ll hold it deep within my heart,
For it hasn’t diminished love,
It’s the same as it was from the start.
I know it was not your choice,
Of why you went away,
Another Angel was needed,
So He called upon you that day.
He felt that I would be strong,
Somehow I would pull through,
But I feel my days are numbered,
I can’t survive here without you.
You were my knight in shining armor,
My sun and my breath of fresh air,
You were the one that I could count on love,
Because you were the one who cared.

Rose. God's will be done for your friend. My heart goes out to her. Thank you for this evocative poem. It stabs at the heart. I will pray for an answer to Alzheimers. Rockie Coppolella

you explore the heart again and the sense of loss and the good feelings of what was and was worthwhile you mingle and blend beautifully.

God be with your friend's wife as she copes with her loss in the beset way she can; Alzheimer's is a cruel and insidious disease!
