Love Everlasting – v2

I saw love everlasting
today, this moment
In their goodbye;
Sorrow in her spirit
Hope for tomorrow
For union, reunion,
in eternity

A husband, a soulmate,
wasting, overtaken
The Reaper alongside;
A wife losing
her friend and champion –
her “Mr. Wonderful”

Raw emotion, tears,
pain, compassion
loss and longing
love and tears
Frozen forever
in Love Everlasting
