Haunted By Your Presence

 I stand by your grave

It is five years since you died

Taken away by a terrorist bomb attack

Although you have gone I can still feel your presence

Looking down on me

Guiding me in the right direction

I cannot move on

Our bond was so strong and precious

No love could replace it

I am destined to walk the earth alone

Haunted by your presence

Trying to defy your destiny

Reaching out from beyond

Our child is a constant reminder of our love

He will forever remind me of you

His blond hair and blue eyes and innocent smile

We had so much to live for

And yet it was so cruelly taken away

I know we will be reunited one day

I can feel your presence all around me

Reaching out to try to caress me

I will be strong and fight on

But the wounds are deep

Such a cruel way to die

I long to hold you again

But I belong to this world for the time being

I miss you my love

And long to see you again

Our child will make us proud

He is the product of our love

And will forever bind us together

His happiness is my ultimate goal in life

It is so hard to enjoy life now you are gone

How can I laugh and smile

When I feel such grief

The wounds are so hard to heal

I leave these flowers by your graveside

As a reminder of our blossoming love

That was cut so dramatically short

Continue to look down and guide me

I am lost in the darkness of my sorrow

I am like a child seeking guidance

With tears streaming down my face

So long my love

The journey will go on

Until one day when we  are reunited once again
