To one
so strong
Who fought
so gallantly
Who served
so sweetly
Whose
life was an enigma
Whose face
was a delight
Whose beauty
wasn’t distorted by age
Who always
thought about me
And would
give up all
For my
best
Even when
it hurt you
It didn’t
matter
What time
of the day
Once I
needed you
Once I
needed to go
You were
always there
Unwavering
Whether
in pain or joy
I relied
on you
Oh God!
What a
relief it was
Life has
to be life
Claiming
territories
And encroaching
into privacy
Sickness
stretching
Into the
veins
And getting
a wash in the blood
And finally
The painful
reality of death
I wish
there was more
More time
to experience you
More time
to love you
And show
the world
That my
woman
Will forever
be
My all
And my
everything
I’ve
learnt to take each day
With its
own strides
I’m
still battling
With love
Learning
to love like you did
But I
know I’ll get it
And I’m
sure you’re always here
Smiling
at me
And for
you
I’ll
move on and live life to the max.
Thanks mom
You’ll
forever be
My knight
in shinning armour.
