My soulmate died, but I didn't really lose him

True Love Never Dies

by Monica Chaddick

Soulmates really do exist

Of this, to you, I do not jest

 

I was married and divorced

Before fate would take its course

 

We met through a mutual friend

We had no idea where it would end

 

We had an agreement to see other people

But for us both it didn’t equal

 

To time spent with one another

Over me he even pissed off his brother

 

Twenty - one short years we were allowed to share

Then his death, that cross I did bare

 

I held his hand and watched him die

With tears flowing from my eyes

 

At age forty-eight he was taken from me

Although I lost him in 2019, his spirit I still do see

 

He has visited and checked on us

He just appears ~ he makes no fuss

 

I still feel I should be faithful to him

A few weeks ago, my thoughts did swim

 

A guy I know wanted to spend time with me

I was interested but felt it was wrong, you see

 

While debating what to do

My phone did ring ~ can you guess who

 

I answered the number though I didn’t know it

When I heard who it was, I felt like my heart had been hit

 

It was my late husband on the line

Saying he was checking to see if I was fine

 

When I asked who it was, so that I could confirm

The phone disconnected ~ that answer was firm

 

I know it was him ~ I felt it in my heart

From him, though he’s gone, I will never part

 

I got the message, loud and clear

He is still here, and I’ve nothing to fear

 

My soulmate never really left me

And that’s how I know afterlife we will see

 

This is my poem all about love

It even exists from Heaven above
