After the loved one has died.

It is where the heart resides.

or should our hearts just sing.
For when a loved one passes on,
another angel has their wings.

Pandemics don't come with waivers
Pandemics don't exchange favours
From beginning to end
Whether loved one or friend
Pandemics produce cadavers!

Cancer

Never in my life,
Have I hated anything more.
Another loved one,
You have in your greedy clutches.
And all I can do is watch,
As you slowly take them,
Away from me.

Greater love is that which transforms a person
 into another person completely:
  It's you being you and the other loved one,
and the loved one being her and you!

With mute tombstone drowned by a bitter tear -
Harder to praise pesky familiar one - 
To embrace, accept those alive and near.

Fading

It's the hardest thing
In the world to see
A loved one slipping away
When they had so much 
Life and vitality
That seems to be fading 
The pain you feel is
UNBEARABLE!!!

The candles we light
as each person attends
our loved one now gone
but it's far from the end

Gone from the Earth
to live on elsewhere
watching over us
until we are there

the utmost love of all
 is the one that transmutes
the loved one into you 
and you into the loved one...
That's when the coupled
,metamorphoses into one
by the merger of love...!

Gary Cooper cocked his gun
And pointed it at everyone
He aimed to shoot Frank Miller
A cowboy and a would-be killer
Of Amy, Gary Cooper's loved one.

Premium Member Life Happens, Move On

Life is complex
    or so many think
  When a former loved one
    now goes by 'ex'

  Frankly, that's bull

  You never knew love
    ~ it was just sex

To whom the gods did give much strife
And now to end my life with much aharm
I drink this poison to join my loved one across the stars

    Absent darkness
      we know not light

Taking Care of Health

Illness is a huge problem to man. 
Medicine is quite expensive. 
The income is not enough 
to sustain the treatment 
of a sick loved one. 
At times the cause 
of ailment 
is the 
sin.
