I just wasn' t ready

by Glen C Schulz — Read all 19 poems by Glen C Schulz

Dealing with the sudden loss of a family member.

Monday, September 5, 2022

                      I just wasn't ready

Time can seem endless

as the days pass us by,

but with you beside me

time really did fly.

 

I know now it's over

you're not here anymore,

and each bitter moment

has become such a chore.

 

I just wasn't ready,

I wish you had stayed,

and I beg now to hold you,

SO hard I have prayed.

 

My cup runneth over

with you by my side,

and now it is empty

with you gone.. like the tide.

 

I miss you, I love you,

I thank you so much.

I wish one more time

I could just feel your touch.

 

GS.

Oh my, sorry to hear this, Glen.
In 2022 I lost my mother and my partner too. A few months ago I lost my brother. I guess Oscar Wilde would call it careless, yet that pain is horrendous.

Look after you.

Dear Glen, this poem touches the heart and soul. No words can express the grief and loss of a loved one. Only memories can fill the gap with golden light, only memories survive the loss. Hang on tight to the remembered bliss, its like a gentle kiss from the grave every time. :)

Such a heart touching poem of loss, Glen.

Writing poetry is a good way to deal with your grief. I don't know what I would do if I suddenly lost the support I have from my caregiver/partner. I hope it's the other way around because she is ready to retire and I want her to be free from me because I am such a burden 24/365 with no other help.

Time will heal and you'll move on. Like my twin brother has after losing his wife to a fall about five years ago.
