Now Gone

(Loss Of Spouse Poems Love)

I don’t always find living my life so easy,

With our time of being together now gone.

Although it is so hard with you not here,

I do know, that my life must continue on.

I miss all of the things we always shared,

and so many things we had not yet done.

Everything that was special with only you,

which can not be replaced; not by anyone.

I know I have to continue on with my life,

until time comes for me to again join you.

If I were able to hear you speaking to me,

I’m sure, you’d be saying these words too.

Although my sad heart still aches for you,

and my life isn’t the same as it was before.

Life is far too precious not to be fully lived,

and I’m blessed, to still have time for more.

Memories of you will forever be my strength,

and they will live, with you inside of my heart.

I will remember everything you mean to me,

instead of living the sadness of being apart.

So I will always carry your love in my heart,

living my life the best way that I know how.

Remembering this is what you’d want of me,

and I must therefore start to live again, now.

With You In Spirit

(Loss Of Spouse Poems Love)

Your heart may be heavy and aching,

Now that I’m no longer here.

But, though you may shed many tears,

Let memories banish your fear.

My arms are no longer around you.

My lips cannot speak of my love.

But, I’m with you in spirit each day,

As I look down from Heaven above.

The house may be silent without me.

It doesn’t mean I can’t be there.

And, every night that you sleep,

Our love, in your dreams, we still share.

As you continue, alone on earth,

I’ll be with you each step of the way.

I can still be the strength that you need,

To carry you through each new day.

Although, I know you can’t see me,

Our spirits are joined as before.

So, whenever you feel uplifted,

Know it’s me just loving you more.

In Heaven, we’re given a gift

To still tend to the ones left behind.

So, smile when you think of me.

I remain in your heart and your mind.

Garden Of Longing

(Loss Of Spouse Poems Love)

I know where the garden of longing is

I’ve been there many a time

To see your beautiful smiling face

And hold your hand in mine

We walk the paths where flowers bloom

And watch the butterflies

We share some childhood memories

Of yesterday’s gone by

Many tears I’ve cried since you went away

My life has changed so much

Without you here to share with me

Or feel your gentle touch

I miss your smile, your laughter too

I miss those days gone by

I often sit and wonder

About all the reasons why

I guess your blooms were so beautiful

All covered with glistening mist

That God sent the angels down that day

And checked you off his list.
