Missing you .... Pandemic poem

Window shade entirely pulled down
Curtains not drawn back
Eyes open to a new day of darkness

My hand reaches over to caress the softness of your flesh.
To follow the definitions of your body.
But all that my fingertips touch, was a memory of the past.

Just like a thought flowing down memory lane
Tears flow down the side of my cheeks.
Following the path, it has followed since the second you left me.

It was sudden, as a ragging thunderstorm turning the blue sky black.
One day a dry cough, a week later, you were a memory forever itched inside my consciousness.
It was not a suffocating ordeal that lasted for weeks or a month
It was as quick as a heartbeat inside my chest.
Now I lay in the darkness of the room crying from missing you.
Crying because you are no longer by my side to share the wonders of life with me

You were a person that was funny and bright.
With a soul that was so full of God-given life
A person whom I had planned to live an eternity with while sharing the optimum of being loved by someone dear
Who would have guessed, death was lingering so near?

I shall never forget you nor the love we shared
Because every morning that my eyes open, the memory of you will be everywhere
A love that is a mainstay forever within my heart
A love that will not stop
Even when the day, my weeping tears, shall no longer drop
My heart will miss you...

I wrote this poem in thoughts of all that has lost a loved one to the Pandemic
A prayer was said for all.

Peace and love
