UNFORSAKENED

It is I, you said, was God-send
I was oblivious to your retirement
That extra special event.

It is I, you told, "...was a nobody."
The day after, I fell to the floor and wept
One abruptly wailed out your name.

It is I, you loved, with a love  so raw
I awoke and found me on your pillow
Pink roses filled that crystal vase.

It was you, I loved, with a love so rare
I bowed and cried my first tear, all
For the sake of loving you.
