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.
