Poem Commentary

I wrote this poem due to it being a year since 9-13-09 when I lost my husband and best friend after we had been 2gether for 13 yrs...I miss him everyday in every way!!!

A YEAR WITHOUT YOU

A year without you brings
Alot of sleepless nights because
You aren't holding me
A year without you brings
Not wanting to watch TV because
It reminds me of you and me
A year without you brings
Not cooking meals because
that's what we used to eat
A year without you brings 
A lot of emotion and heartache
In the songs I sing
A year without you brings
The boys missing you and
their mood swings
A year without you brings
No more you and me
A year without you brings
Drinking a lil more and
more smoking
A year without you brings
figuring out who is fake a phony
A year without you brings
Me having to create a new beginning
A year without you brings
Losing a part of me
A year without you brings
Many many days and nights
alone crying
A year without you brings
No one hear to help or
take care of me
A year without you brings
Some days of me feeling
like I'm dying
A year without you brings
Me wishing everyone knew the
guy that the boys and I had the pleasure
of knowing
A year without you brings
Alot of soul searching
A year without you brings
Me trying new things
A year without you brings
Missing you everyday and
Sitting here lonely

"A year without you brings Me wishing everyone knew the guy that the boys and I had the pleasure of knowing " Ty, this poem is so tragic, yet so beautifully and masterly composed . You have made excellent us of the anaphora- "A Year without you:" and your metrical flow is flawless,as well as your effective choice of diction which expresses your pain and passion marvellously. Thanks for sharing. ...May you continue to be courageous, resilient and forbearing.. ....

Keep writing and throw yourself into the Poetry.I can believe it is very hard,But You can do it.When I started writing poetry everything came out scrambled and repiticious.It took Me two Years to start writing things started to make sense to me.I never stopped trying thou.Keep writing.God Bless -Black

A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
