Very Wise

Very Wise                                                         9

I’m just a man with a broken heart trying to show love
  To the woman who I lost and is now in the heaven above
I think back when we met we shared a kiss 
  Now the days go by I think of my wife who I terribly miss
Life seems so very unfair 
  I was older but it’s my wife who is not here
All the years we were married I gave her all that I could
  I gave her all my love and my heart the way a husband should
When special days and some holidays come near
  It hurts more on these days that my wife and I no longer share
I wish I could remember everything from my past
  I would burn my wife in my mind so it all would last 
Over and over as the days go by
  I try to get by with out a cry
Joey was my wife and now she is gone
  I am finding my days so very hard to move on
On our wedding day some words I had said
  I promised to always love her and with this ring I thee wed
We have two girls Barbara and Patricia are their names
  Also their is our son his name is James
My wife was a tall and slender blonde with blue eyes
  She loved me and I guess she was very wise
