Letter From Beyond

I write this letter for I`m missing you
I know what my absence would have done,
To have a good wife is for selected few,
Without me I know it`s tough to move on.

It`s not my making for making you sad,
It`s the supreme creator that ordered this call,
Though leaving you behind makes you go mad,
Please!,endure for a while to cope with this fall.

Think of the good times we shared together
and weep no more,for the Lord is with thee,
Loads of two is now one,strength you must gather,
Leaving you is painful ,this you have to see.

Whether near or far away you remain dear,
This vacuum or space you still have to bear.



*Dedicated to all widows and their children….
