I came back to Erin
The land that I love.
there was Seanine waiting,
this before he died of the drink.

No flowers, too manly for that
but a wide grin from ear to ear
his arms open wide..
And a question.

Of course I would,
twas the reason for my return.

I did make it down the aisle,
following his coffin.
He never could keep a promise.

Such a sad write in the ending of it.

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

A sad but true story,  so often repeated,
leaving empty arms that yearn to hold and
can not.
