The yearning to be together when the time to leave this world is arriving is so intense here. Love for each other is deep and even death can't take it away. A very emotional poem. Liked it.

A lovely and poignant poem. I can relate, being no stranger myself to grief and loss. Congrats, Gianfranco, for having your poem chosen as Member POD!

Beautiful poem, Gianfranco. Congratulations for having it selected as poem of the day!

'and now that the wrinkles are even deeper because you're gone, the night doesn't scare me anymore' - These lines touched me deep. So sad, yet so beautiful! ! ! To grow old together with a beloved one is a sublime thought, which the poet has elaborated so beautifully in this poem! Loved it really and thought over it, over and over again! Congratulations on your poem's selection as the 'Member Poem of the Day'!

Nobody's life, long or short, is a cakewalk. We have to bear and traverse through our own trials and tribulations throughout the length of our life. This becomes easier when we have hands of love to hold on to, particularly at the later days of our life. I fully agree with Lorraine Colon that 'It's no fun growing old, but to do it with a loved one is so much easier to bear'.

A very touching poem, congratulations on POD Gianfranco.
