If this were my last day on earth
Would you care?
Would you care
If this were my last Christmas?
No more presents to buy
No more trees to trim
My babies would miss me
At least I hope they would
But you have a life of your own now
One that doesn’t have time for me
Even though you are with me
Each and every second
Of each and every day
I’m truly sorry that I ruined your love for me
Maybe after God calls me home
You’ll finally have your peace
And be rid of me, allowing
The man of your dreams to come along
And finish replacing me in your life
But remember one thing
I loved you till the end
With all my heart
And soul

Lets Love one another and let God do the worrying,
Rodney

This is so well written but sad, Rodney.
It really does hurt when you are shut out. I hope you have some good friends to spend time with, if this is a "current event" for you, the holiday season can be the most difficult of all. Peace and healing thoughts are on their way to you.

Yes, this is sad! What do you do when the passion soon fades? Who knows!

Please don't be so hard on yourself..I am sure things are better than they seem. This is a hard time of year for many people, including myself.. I find that writing helps and reading the poems of others. I always enjoy yours whether I comment or not.

Thanks for the compliment songbird...didn't know I had a "fan"...lol...yes it is rough and I seem to be able to release through writing. It ISN'T as bad as it seems...but it still causes you to pause and think, and wonder if ANYTHING could've been done to change things...all I know is while she is "exploring"...she is slowly killing a great love...and it hurts me to know and feel it dying...again thanks to all for reading and commenting...Rod

I know the feelings, and know that it's not very easy. You did a good job letting it out into this poem though.

Well after reading this I felt compelled to reply and say that the words are felt painfully well. If I wore a hat it would be off to you on this poem.

Good cannot exist without evil. Darkness I embrace.
