A very well-written 2-4-2 poem. There is a silence when someone close to.us suddenly dies. It is like the world stop turning for a few seconds at that exact moments.

That says it all and it's so sad, but not for the one passing but for the surviving. They are the ones that carry on with emotions, for their loved one. I hope you are supported with family and friends, daily, to keep you going forward. You sound very determined and strong and with a bit of time the pain will lessen but not forgotten.
Bless you

This poem is well written. The passing of a loved one is sad for those left behind but joyous for those going forward. I wish you the best and let the sunshine even just a little bit. Good Luck in the contest. Thank you for sharing your work.

This speaks out the words that state the very last environment or state of affairs in which the beloved person breathed his last breath in silence and the inevitable death came; I liked.

    Thank you. Describing and sharing that intimate moment is both a blessing and very difficult.

You've written a good poem.
Short but says a lot.
It consists of three lines with a syllable count: 2-4-2
'Silent' meets the requirements of the contest and makes a good entry.
--I'm very sorry to hear about your husband.
The font color goes well with the background selected.
Best of luck to you in the contest.
Thanks for sharing your poetry.
Good luck with your future writing.

Your poem no doubt shares your own experience with the death of a loved one. Sorry for your loss...hope Fanstory is providing some solace as you create and find healing. Simple poem, to the point. Good job. Might have added a picture? Not sure...

While I am not sold on these teensy syllable driven forms, your poem touched me very much. I would love to see where you might continue it from its current form into a full expression in a lengthier piece; if you can find the strength. It is an anniversary I know you never wanted and hope that, with time, it becomes a day to celebrate his life - and yours together without the acute pain. Way to much to ask so soon. - Wendy

    Wendy,
    Thank you for the amazing encouragement. Writing has always been the most healing tool I have been given. Although it has been difficult to write and share at times, I do plan to write much more.
    Hugs,
