Cheryl's Poem, Love and Agony

All the years I spent with you.
you the one,
my special love,
my wife.

Through your sorrow,
I waited for you,
while you measured 
your life.

All the years,
all the sorrow at the end,
all you said was, 
"sorry and good-bye".

I still whisper your name
from time to time, 
                    "Cheryl",
it still sounds so sweet.

Bringing my agony
to the surface.
Can one heal
when nothing was real ?
        
In your moment of despair,
I was there,
like the air you breathe,
I was there !

I seen the truth in your eyes,
but our friends said,
she'll come around
and see what she has.

So I sat back,
put my life on hold
and waited for you,
while you doubted life.

Memory brings the agony
of days gone by,
lost to a fate
I didn't choose.
