The Weeping Widow

The Weeping Widow


Who was to know,
how that day would go.
You arose before dawn,
but it didnt take long
to realize you were gone.

No time to say good-bye,
even though I was by your side
Begging for you not to die,
over and over again, I tried.
Only God knows why you had to die,
that day, that way.

Now I lay awake,
many lonely nights,
Wondering how much more I can take.
It’s been such a long, hard fight.

Just want to close my eyes,
And get lost in my dreams,
Where there are no good-byes
And you are still alive, it seems.

As you lay all alone in that green pasture,
You can be sure,
Til death we did part,
And in death, we will once again
become one heart.

Dedicated to my late husband. Gone but not forgotten.
Love you always. Sandee Foxten

My Broken Heart

“MY BROKEN HEART"

My broken heart can only feel,
as if it will never heal,
You went to the extreme,
when you shattered my every dream.

Thoughts of you,
just make me blue,
For I am left here to cope,
without any hope,
Of such a tender caress,
as only you can profess.

I will forever long,
to be in those sweet arms
Where I belong,
but my broken heart
will not let me forget,
That for now we must be apart
and it hurts more than a little bit.

Your love was the soul
that made me whole,
Now I only cry,
to forget you I can only try.

My heart is now
just a cloud of dust,
letting go of you is a must.
My one true love,
you have surely flown away
just like a dove.

For my "Baby Blue"-always in my heart.

The Key To My Heart

“THE KEY TO MY HEART"


When I first saw him standing there,
it was more than I could bare,
It turned into more than just a glare,
For all I could do was stare.

With nothing more between us
than a small creek,
It was that very moment,
my heart fell weak.

The eyes that locked,
were so deep and blue,
My mind was suddenly blocked,
and off my feet I was knocked
For I had not a clue,
If this could be true.

Never before had I fell so fast,
Was he the one at last?
Only time would tell,
If we would open up our shell.

In an instant my heart fell,
so deep into his spell
Little did we know,
how much our love would grow.

Never again to love so deep
or take such a leap,
For always he will be
the one with my hearts only key.

Dedicated to "Baby Blue"-I will always love you.
