Let Me Be Wild Forever

If still loving you with all my heart
makes me crazy,

then let me lose my mind—

blowing kisses to the empty air,
talking to an unoccupied car seat,
whispering goodnight
to a picture frame.

Holding your urn tightly,
feeling my heart beating
in sync with yours.

If still loving you with all my heart
makes me crazy,

then let me be the wild one—

still wearing your ring,
laughing at your jokes
only I can understand,
weaving our memories
into every corner
of this hollowed world.

If still loving you with all my heart
makes me crazy,

then let me stay mad—

a woman who refuses
to amputate her own heart,

a woman who loves
like death forgot
to close the door.

Let me dance with your spirit
beneath the invisible stars—

spinning inside the love we built,
the love not even death
can unravel.

If still loving you with all my heart
makes me crazy,

then I will be wild forever—

gloriously,
tenderly,
fiercely yours,

until the stars themselves
forget how to burn.

Binh, a wonderfully penned sad, emotive poem. Full of grief and emotions. So sorry for your loss.
