Am I just existing
Or living my life
Now I’m a widow
No longer a wife?
For so many years
I was half of two
Now I’m alone
What do I do?
Always holding
Memories tight
I walk from the dark
Into the light
Learning to be
A new single me
It’s hard to do
But I know you
Would want me
To carry on and be
The person I was
When you first met me
So with a reset mind
And courage of heart
I’ll endeavor to make a fresh new start
Living every day
With integrity
Keep myself true
To your memory.
