Farewell to My Beloved

Farewell to My Beloved

Today, I lay to rest the one I love —
the meaning of my life, my companion of the soul.
For so long, she battled a merciless illness,
and I, helpless, could only watch
as she slowly faded away —
like a flower surrendering its final breath
in the silence of dusk.

There was nothing I could do…
Only prayers, tears,
and a heart breaking in silence.

Now, as she walks toward eternity,
I carry the weight of staying behind.
My heart feels as if it’s being torn from my chest,
bleeding with every beat.

Fate…

once again showed its cruel face.
And here I whisper beside the earth:
“If only she had stayed — and I had gone instead.”

Now even the wind
whispers her name
in the quiet of the night…
