Something a little different today. I wrote a poem for a friend and I’d like to share it. He’s losing his soul mate to cancer and I wish there were something, anything that could be done. My heart is full. It goes out to them and everyone who has been through or is going through the same heartache of losing the one you love.

For Robert & Eileen

–

There is another world, my love

A world that’s free of pain

Hold me in your heart, my dear

It’s where we’ll meet again

–

Life is cruel you see, my sweet

Who knows it more than we?

But hold my hand, my darling one

In no time you’ll be free

–

I’ll follow you, my soul’s delight

Don’t ever think I’ll fail

Trust that thought, my dearest heart

I’m not the sort to bail

–

There is another world, my love

A world that’s free of pain

Hold me in your heart, my dear

It’s where we’ll meet again
