Forever and a Day

I woke up this morning thinking of you. Reached for your warmth as I always would do. But your side of the bed was empty with fold. Pillows in place, untouched and cold. I did not smell coffee. The news was not on. Things seem so different since you are gone. Your sweet smelling scent is fading away. So I cling to your memory in every possible way. Motivating myself is a struggle to do. Hard to see sunshine when feeling so blue. They say it gets better as time goes by. To look for the good at least give it a try. Something happened at work today. Started to call you right away. Sadly remembering, I hung up the phone. You were not there. God took you home. My heart is hurting. My soul cries with pain. Got nothing to lose. Got nothing to gain. Time is one asset, I have plenty to spare. Holding on tight. Going no where. I'm looking for good, as I have been told. Reaching for warmth, yet shiver with cold. Darling, I miss you in every way. And still loving you, forever and a day.
