As it's the last day of September...the
month my husband went away 19 years ago
I thought I would share this poem with you.
I NEED YOU:
Since you went away,
Causing me much heartache and pain.
How I need you back,
To put me together again.
Life has been good most times,
But of late have had it's ups and downs.
Me forgetting how to laugh,
On my face a continual frown.
I look at your photo and think
Of all the good times we had.
You were a wonderful husband,
Likewise a wonderful dad.
Although the years have flown by,
Since you went away.
I need you now as I did then,
In my heart you'll always stay.
From the book "Stand Beside Me Danny Boy".

A lovely poem Yvonne, and one I can really relate to from when my own partner went away, as I'm sure some of your other readers can too.
