My Dearest

That night when I saw you Your tear stained face That inexplicable heart ache I could never explain I was glad ... Very glad that you lost something And glad that I was able to find it. I felt blessed to have loved you for years Without either of us having known each other Perhaps it was your voice or your feelings May be it was those lyrics May be it was the peace That I relished from your songs. The time when we met During the fireworks festival Bumping into you Was a blessing You have no idea how I felt I knew your innocence I felt your passion I lost myself in your eyes A labyrinth which was But I still feigned ignorance It was a blessing to be partnered with you to look after the class To teach you piano To sing together To taste victories.... together Tell me ... When Was it that we started to fall in love From being strangers how did fate support us ? When did you become my strength ? When did you turn into my weakness ? My dearest , do you know ? You added colour to my life A unique painting our memory became Your pure smile swayed my heart My dearest you gave me all I love the scarf you made I love the food you made I love your angry face I love your care So where did you go ? Why did you go so far away ? Where I cannot reach Should I leave this world to accompany you ? The separation was unbearable I lost my memories I forgot you I forgot my daughter  but then You still kept hope alive Fulfilled your promise Left without your heart Embedded in another body I look at her like I look at you She smiles at me like you smile at me Now I remember you  I see you in her It's your heart her beats My dearest ! I'll miss you I'll miss you, keep missing you Even though you left your essence Even though you cared about me In your time of death I'll miss you For you are an unforgettable memory A beautiful story For you my love I'll live on Love her as I loved you Raise my children like you want me to And when I sit and cry hard alone Like a desolate child Come into my dreams and make me free!

I love this poem hope the readers understand that it's about the wife who donated her heart before her death and the woman who received the transplant married the husband later !
