Poem
His wife left him in intensive care
After saying her last good-bye
She just couldn’t stay with him in there
For the moment he would die

They were married for over thirty years
He wrote lyrics for love songs
Words that would bring women to tears
To a beat you can sing along

Her best friend sat with him instead
So he wouldn’t have to die all alone
She leaned down and whispered near his head
“Please write for me a last love song”

“Write for me a love song, before you pass away
Your soul may go to heaven, but your words right here can stay
Write as if the romance we did not share, was a part of our life
I wasn’t burdened by matrimonial cares and you did not love your wife”

They were lovers in thought alone
Never unfaithful to their spouse
Often in each other’s home
But never alone within the house

She always thought his songs were written
With thoughts of her in mind
Especially those about lovers smitten
The Romeo and Juliet kind

Though they never spoke to each other of love
She could see it in his eyes
She wondered what he was thinking of
And what he felt deep down inside

“Write for me a love song, before you pass away
Your soul may go to heaven, but your words right here can stay
Write as if the romance we did not share, was a part of our life
I wasn’t burdened by matrimonial cares and you did not love your wife”

He died later that night
Without ever waking again
With the only one in sight
His wife’s very best friend

She shed a tear for the loss
Of a friend and fantasy
Pleading on his death bed
“Please write a last love song for me”

She reached inside her pocketbook
For a Kleenex to wipe her eyes
And found a piece of paper
Much to her surprise

Written in his handwriting
Was a note of just fourteen words
“There is an unsung love song in my desk,
Your request I have heard”

“Write for me a love song, before you pass away
Your soul may go to heaven, but your words right here can stay
Write as if the romance we did not share, was a part of our life
I wasn’t burdened by matrimonial cares and you did not love your wife”
