The Love of My Life

I have left my reason for living behind,

In another world.

You don't believe me?

I am used to it.

Why did I not choose to live

The remainder of my days

Happily, with my love?

Don't ask,

You would not understand.

He is there and I am here.

I swore I would never love again,

After Rodger died,

But when I met him

My vows shattered.

I was happy,

For a time.

But now,

My love is in

Another world

Almost identical

To this one.

Almost identical

But so different.

How do I know?

I have been there.

Gods help him

Live out his days

Happily,

Unlike me,

Whose life isn't

Worth living,

Now that

My second love is gone.

If he comes,

Asking for me,

Tell him I am happy,

Happy with Rodger.

He will know what I

Am speaking of.

Forgive me,

My darling,

For my life wasn't

Worth living,

With out you.

I miss you,

Yet, I hope not

Too see you,

Too soon.

I love you,

My darling,

And thought about

You every moment

Of my life,

Until this poem

Is finished.

For then,

My time in life

Is through.

We will miss you,

My darling.
