My ring finger holds a secret
A lingering
To be remembered
Opposite side
It sits heavy
Where two worlds collide
My right hand is covered
But my ring finger died
There is no growing season
Twilight moons have become full blown
The growl in my aches have turned full grown
I am childlike from these moans
My pen and paper have turned stones
From the weight of this wind
And death has become my companion
Widowed
I am simply so sorry.
Please don’t apologize, what is meant to be will be, with or without my permission ❤
Ooh, what a touching poem! I could feel the weight of your emotions as you wrote this. Quite sombre indeed. May the Supreme creator grant you favour and strength to stem all the tides of widowhood. 😢💐💖🌺💖💐
Hi kind sir, it comes from a real place, just felt moved to jot it down last night. I pray the Supreme creator grants me favour again with the love gods, one day before I get old and wrinkled ❤
He surely will. You’re still a fine young lady and this won’t wear you down if don’t allow it. This is part of life. You now just rise up and leap on. Thanks for sharing, it helps get rid of the emotions. You’re strong and resilient, you will write a story of victory that will inspire generations to come. ❤❤

Love this.

Thank you
I lost my husband twenty years ago and was left with two children to finish raising. It was not easy. Your poem has the ring of authenticity. It took twelve years for me to finish the task of raising my children and begin to rebuild my life, but I am very happy now. Wishing you the best!
Ohhh yes, this piece is definitely one written from experience, I wish I had not had to write it but this is my journey. I’m still in the stages of grief, I think, I question where I am mentally, often checking for stability. Thank you for commenting, it’s comforting to know there are those who have been on this crazy ride and came out on the other side “very happy”
Thanks for visiting Cheryl ♥️
