Poem to My Wife as my Cancer starts to win the battle

in #poetry7 years ago (edited)

I continue to get weak and struggle
But my love I still like to snuggle
To feel your heart and know your love
when gone as an angel far above

There is a place for me in heaven
where I no longer suffer or feel pain
When missing me just feel that
No matter what I am just two steps behind

For I am asking God to let me be an angel
To protect and guide you
all you have to do is look up to the sky
and know that you will see me

In the day I am a raven looking down
To protect you from all those scary clowns
I watch and stare until the sun goes down
but do not be afraid as I am love bound

At night I am an angel in the stars
what a great place to be
You see every star is an angel at night
So know I am an angel and shine so bright

Know that I'm watching over you
just continue to look up and see
I will always be watching over you
please don't be sad for me

Someday when our souls meet
I will finally go to heaven as my final treat
to sit in heaven in a relaxing seat
As I protected you my love and my soul still has a beat

Love you, hold you, even when I have gone
for you my heart will burn hot and strong
To the day we meet and kiss once more
Till then I will wait at heavens Door

my girl and I

She even became a hockey fan with me

I will miss buying you roses like always
!

As I lose weight and struggle

will always know the good times and love we shared

Thanks Dave! and the way these comments aligned themselves, it appears that I am professing my undying love to you haha, granted, you've become a good friend, but let's not get crazy :)

You and I deserve some quiet alone time I think. I love you more than words can say.

its a beautiful poem Brian. It is sad what you and Lynn are going through. I know there is nothing I can say that will make it any better for you. But I can see the love you both have for each other and I'm thankful that you are able to experience that love. Those pictures match the words to the poem and it is beautiful the way you express your heart to her!

I hope you are not in too much pain or discomfort... And my thanks for you bringing this to my attention!

it was not to bring to your attenetion but to thank you for being a friend here

You better don't give up so soon...
Remember it is not over yet until its over.

Thank you @smilecity. I am his wife, and really appreciate your kind words.

There's so little that can be said. Let me just wish you days filled with joy and peace in the time remaining.

thanks alot for stopping by

Thank you so much. Like me what are you doing up lol.

I hope that you and your family can continue to stay strong through this difficult period. Thanks for sharing your journey.

So touching and true, your love for your soul mate. You will always be together until time is no more. Beautiful poem. <3

Hello @briancourteau. I'm crying until now. I feel your words. You spoke beautiful and sincere words. I can feel that you love @lynncoyle1 very much. And when I read her post and talk to her, I know that she loves you very much too. Both of you are so lucky you have found each other. Not everyone gets the love that you have. Please keep strong. I wish you both a happy Valentines despite the suffering because I know that you're celebrating your love, and that's stronger than the pain. I'm sorry if I don't have the right words.

Thank you so much. your words are beautiful

My heart goes out to the two of you. It is a beautiful poem and I would like to read many and many more dedications to Lynn and your family. So stay strong. I don't always remember to say a nightly prayer but I will for you and your family to overcome this disease and pull out of this strong.

thank you so much

Thank you so much @beeyou; such kind words...here's hoping the prayers work!

Extremely touching! Never give up, as hard as the days may get, fight until the last day. Your wife and kids are very lucky to have a great person like you around, even for the short time that they have. I wish you and your beautiful wife peace, strength and understanding in your final days. <3

thank you and I pray I get a bit more time also. I fight the fight and will until I cannot. again thank you

Thank you so much @smylie (I'm Brian's wife:). I appreciate your kindness!

Youre both so very welcome! Enjoy your time together! Youre in my thoughts... many hugs and lots of love sent yalls way <3
