REMEMBERING LOVED ONES

Valentine's day a day of lovers
But a sad day for some
Remembering loves
Though I am physically hurting
Those stairs were unforgiving
My lovely wife puts ice on my back
I feel the pain of others
My lifetime friend shared with me
He lost his wife early this year
Another rare half century marriage
MY friend suffers from CO PT
Oxygen is his constant companion
"I would just like to meet a lady.
Not for love but companionship
Share wine and dinner in a restaurant."
I would cough bring out the oxygen
For him the day is a sad day of memories
No pain is worse than remembering
Those who have past before us
When the door jam turned my world black
I expected to wake up in Heaven
Faith is there is a reason I am left behind
Maybe my job is to be a friend in need
Let my friend know someone shares their hurt
