My Sweetest Love

You were the one the only one to gaze into my soul our love so deep through many years grew stronger even through our tears whatever life would throw our way together so strong we swept it away we loved each other so But evil slithered in the night we lay without a care malevolent ~ malignant silently growing slowly strangling to finally destroy my sweetest love ~ you had no chance Even when your heart and soul took on the challenge took up the fight A love so strong our whole life long was not enough ~ despite so when at last the monster won my life I lived without the Sun For you my love were dead how could my life go on But evil cannot break true love such love we had goes on and on until we meet in paradise your love is deep inside my soul Written 21st June 2019 – the longest day Contest Name YOUR CHOICE(12) LOVE VERSE,any form or theme Sponsor Brian Strand HONORABLE MENTION

No, Love cannot be broken even by death. What a loss Anne. My husband died at age 40. But we have to keep going.Life strangely works to our benefit. It's hard to get things in perspective after a loss. You will see him again, Anne. Your poem is beautiful! Panagiota

Thank you so much Vijay for your lovely comments. Even after ten years I still get my bad days, and I find writing my feelings down can be quite therapeutic. With kindest thoughts Ann xx .
