POEM For DELANO
THE MOMENT I HEARD YOU DIED MY HEART WAS TORN IN TWO. ONE SIDE FILLED WITH HEARTACHE THE OTHER DIED WITH YOU: I OFTEN LEI AWAKE AT NIGHT WHEN OUR SON IS FAST ASLEEP, AND TAKE A WALK DOWN MEMORY LANE, WITH TEARS UPON MY CHEEKS: REMEMBERING IS EASY BABY, I DO IT EVERYDAY, MISSING YOU IS A HEARTACHE THAT’S NEVER GOING TO GO AWAY. DELANO, ON LIFE I LOVED YOU DEARLY, IN DEATH I LOVE YOU STILL, IN MY HEART YOU HOLD AA PLACE THAT NO ONE COULD EVER FILL. IT BREAKS MY HEART TO LOOSE YOU, BUT YOU DIDN’T GO ALONE,PART OF ME WENT WITH YOU,THE DAY GOD TOOK YOU HOME.
I LOVE YOU ALWAYS AND FOREVER. RUBY
