Helen’s Daughter

Helen’s Daughter
By Joeysguy

Helen, Since your daughter is back with you
This writing is long overdue

When your daughter became my wife
I also became her protector in life
                                                            
She developed heart problems like you
And died because of  it too

I feel I failed to keep her alive
I’m sorry that she didn’t survive
                                                
Lots of my memories bring out my tears
But I wouldn’t trade away any of those years
                                        
Being with her on that very last day
That’s the time I wish I could trade away

Will you watch over her with care
Hold on to her till the day that I get there

She has given me some special days
With balloons and candles I show some loving ways

I never new how empty I could be
Until your daughter passed and left me

I was a husband to my wife
Now a widower for the rest of my life
