My Tribute To You

As I continue this path without you in my life, the days that lie ahead become filled with sorrow and anguish; but, I learned one thing and that is: I am still in love.

I still hear the gossips about you

Only then that I don't care

I always want to believe in you

I trust and have faith in you

 

As I walk the path leading to you

I can imagine myself being by your side

We follow the endless road ahead

And that our feelings will never end

 

The stardust that falls upon us

As we trot our way to the heavens

Shine a light for us in the future

To live the way we would like to

 

Half-hearted and hypocritical love

Those were the words that reached my ears

Though painstakingly true, I must face

That I think you no longer love me

 

If I'm not allowed to love you

In this era and place

Let's just go with it and try

I'm not tired of feeling that spark

 

Hey,sometimes we  shed tears

Which may lead to a smile afterwards

Become memories and cherish the feelings

It just does not end there

 

And as I finally stop in front of you

I realize that all my doubts are meaningless

For the person I'm in love with

Can never be replaced by another one

 

Happy death anniversary, my love!

aww thanks for sharing this, its so beautiful while sad. the honesty shared here is also remarkable.

[Tarry Franck]

This is so sad but very wonderful pen'd. Thanks for sharing your sorrowful moments with us. {{{HUGSSSSSSS}}} I know it's one of the hardest things to do.

[Coyote Poetry]

A very sad poem. Death leave us with emptiness. We need to hold on to good memory and hope. Photos and words took the reader to a sad and lonely place. Thank you for the excellent poem.

i like how much deal of honesty expressed here. it is really sad when we lose someone dear to us, but that is life, what makes it little easier is the face that we will be all there one day..everyone of us is just waiting for the time to come..

[Carolann Dowsett]

I hate death anniversaries the most they are so hard to deal with. Beautifully written, full of emotion and endless love.

[Margarette]

I totally agree with you. The first few months are the hardest and when that day of the year came, it has become even worse since all the memories came flooding back and I realize that I'm alone and lost again then.

[Carolann Dowsett]

Yes every year seems to reopen old wounds, though, it does after many years start to get a little easier.

[Margarette]

True, there will come a time when all scars will be removed without keeping track of the time.

[Natasha]

I really enjoyed the last stanza the best--really brings it all together! In a way you bring such a positivity knowing that you can still love someone even though they are gone and still feel the same intense feelings you once had.

[Margarette]

Thank you! I enjoyed writing the last stanza since it's really hard to have a fitting ending. I agree that I can still love another while placing those feelings in a special part of my heart.

[C.C. Marx]

Ahhhhh I can feel the love, no wait, I'm suffocating from it....AHHHHHH!!'!!! all joking aside, very heartfelt great job

[Margarette]

Cool! Thank you very much. It's a sad love story really and I regret my tribute to sound more like that of loneliness and being alone than being able to move on.

[C.C. Marx]

Moving on is a biotch but its soooo worth it once you have, good luck :)

[Margarette]

Yes, I agree!

[lee von cleef]

Love is , a font kiss ,hey good word,I like "Hey" you got this poem stuff rolling pretty good right now.

[Margarette]

Haha,thanks! I did not really want to use the word, "Hey" since it's kind of informal. Do you think so, too? I just want the poem to flow smoothly as if it's my thoughts I'm perfectly writing.

[lee von cleef]

Like I said I like "Hey" of course I am often "Informal"

[Margarette]

And thank you again sir for pointing that out. Its unexpected, really. Anyway, I always love your reviews.

[kublakhan27]

Oh my, I'm three days away from a similar event...incredibly heartfelt work...one can just feel every syllable of this.

[Margarette]

What's the similar event? I'm curious Do you also have someone you wish to visit?

[kublakhan27]

I was thinking about my father, with today being his birthday and the first one he's not here for, and even though you're talking about a different kind of relationship, the sentiment of the piece spoke volumes to me :)

[Margarette]

Yes, indeed it's quite similar! I know you have the strength to make your father proud.

[kublakhan27]

Thank you, that means a lot :)
