Love Poem: Why Lord

Why Lord


Lord, I often open the ornate gates of the cemetery,
     and walk the long winding road to his tomb;
always I bring him flowers and stay with him awhile,
and I always ask you why Lord, why did you take him.
oh, Lord give me the strength to go on without my love,
  you know that I put all my faith in you and believe;
but I am so weak and full of fear, help me overcome this,
  the dagger stabs my heart every single day, every day.
     Lord, I am lost please help me find my way . . .
