_______________________________________________________
This month seemed like  an eternity as he  sat beside  her empty chair. 
  His eyes no longer sparkled, now his  soul mate was no longer there.            
    His love  for her was  more  than  a  myriad  of stars  in  the sky.
      He knew  she was watching over him,  so he dared not to cry. 
        He took flowers from their garden to her every single day.                
     Up to the hillside and by her gravestone, the roses he would lay.
                                                      ||
                                                    ===
                                                      ||                    
                                              I grow older 
                                          by the  minute he 
                                     told her, in a tender voice.
                                   The  doctor  says  it wont  be 
                                long, but I don’t have the choice.
                                You know I want to be  with you, 
                                my  darling  as  soon  as  I   can.
                                You’ll  always  be my  sweetheart  
                                and   I’ll   always  be  your  man.
                                At   night  he  would  sometimes 
                                be  watching the stars trajectory.
                                He would be lying on  the empty 
                                plot  beside her at  the cemetery
                                It  didn’t  matter  if clouds  were 
                                in  the  sunshine  or  in  the  rain
                                His gravestone was ready for the 
                                future,  it  read:  together again.
