I don't read much poetry

But this was touching and understandable. As a man married for 33 years this month, I've thought about how I would be crushed, torn-apart, destroyed and completely lost, if anything were to happen to my wife. I sincerely hope that I die before she does.<br><br>

Survival

Stand in the shower to cover the sounds of your sobs

Sit and pedal the stationary bike to exhaustion

Lie on the bed and reach out to touch

Yet draw your hand back. cold and empty

Tomorrow the sun will rise again

Wow

I didn't expect to read something so beautiful, and so sad here. It must have been hard to put that into words.

This is such a heartrending poem of love and loss. I offer my condolences and hope that time has lessened (but not erased, it will never erase) your pain and you have been able to remember her without so much pain. Peace go with you.
