Lamentation Of A Widower by raiseblog: 8:57pm On Jun 03, 2017
The first time i saw you
You looked too beautiful to be true

I told you i loved you
But you thought i was acting like a fool

And after much ado
You allowed my love to come into you

We got married and bore children
Two girls and a boy:all wonderful children

We enjoyed a blissful and lovely home
A place i would be rushing from work to come

The best meal i ever tasted was your food
We were the envy of the whole neighbourhood

We always spent our weekends at the movies
To some people we were such ninnies

But to us, we were divinely in love
A different kind of love sent from above

I would follow you to the market to get things
Basic,necessary and essential things

Oh! what a wonderful experience we had
Until one fateful day when i heard

That you had been hit and killed by a car
That a hit and run driver had killed you my shining star

Immediately i heard,i felt i could die
A great part of me had ascended to the sky

My whole world came crashing down
I thought:How do i go on living my life now?

Though it has been seven grieving years
But my love for you increased with the years

Today as i stand by your graveyard
I tell you:i will forever love you though your death was sad
