Retep Gargano is no more

We spent hours talking as I wrote poetry he divinely adored everything I wrote he adored my grace my dance my lovely smile each morning he'd write how did you sleep my beautiful we gathered flowers for his mother's grave the yellow ones that grew near the nave you're so beautiful the most beautiful girl in the world I want to share my world with you can you just get away be with me I would say yes let's stroll the sand hand in hand oh Retep you're such a wonderful man keeping a journal of our secret plans the sun would wink as the bridge opened as we sailed across the tides funny how life hides the good parts leaving only broken hearts torn and pulled apart Peter desperately grabs for what is left of our song my poetry he did long that fed his soul filled his weariness i won't live without you a dying lover cancer never to recover

Yolanda, you certainly can write beautifully about this subject. The pain will never relent, but you bring him back to life for all of us with your words. That is a wonderful way to celebrate his life and his affection for you. We're all sorry for your loss and feel it in your words.

To lose one's beloved is not easy to stop the grief. I know too well after seven years of sorrow.
