Message In A Bottle Poem by Nicola Kelly

Message in a bottle

My heart spills over onto the page,
As I write the words I dare,
Not say as by hearing them,
It becomes real you're not there.

I do not have the will,
And do not know the way,
To learn to live without you,
By just existing day by day.

As I have hidden my emotions,
The truth I'm not ready to face,
That I had and knew true love,
I know I can never replace.

My heart is consumed with loss,
Of my dearest and beautiful wife,
Who lost her battle to cancer,
With no dignity taking her life.

As I roll the tear stained pages,
So I can push it through,
My message in a bottle,
Ready to send to you.

Releasing my words into the sea,
Til there is a time when,
My life is spent and done,
And I will see you again.
