Ten Years After Poem by Jacqui Broad
Ten Years After
I gave you the most precious gift
a girl can give to any man...
I knew if I had troubles,
to you I could ran.
You were my friend.
You were my lover.
You were my everything.
I did not always comprehend.
I did not always hover.
But in honor to you I sing...
Hear my song, my love, up in heaven.
God came and took you away,
but I had my time to spend with you,
and in heartache I don't have much to say.
If I must talk and tell of your greatness,
I feel a lumb in my throat and start to cry.
If I think of you and the loneliness I feel,
I look up to God and ask Him why.
Why did He choose to take you
and leave me behind?
What did I do wrong in His eyes
to leave doubt in my mind?
I cannot question Him because He knows best.
My darling, all I can think of is you needed rest.
If you cannot be with me any more in person,
I ask God that you be my guardian angel.
I ask Him that you'll still always be there,
if in times of trouble it's to heaven I stare.
I loved you and I know that you knew.
Ten years spent with you was not enough.
My words of love may seem like too few.
I loved you, therefore gave you love.
God knows I miss you,
so now, He must see me through.
If He thought this is the path to walk,
then He must understand the hurt in my talk.
So allow me to say it, though you cannot hear.
When I say it, in spirit you must appear.
'I LOVE YOU! ' and perhaps always will,
but your reply to this words has grown still...
To Derick, my love, passed away on 11/11/11.
i am so sorry for your loss, you took your pain and wrote a beautiful poem displaying your care for the one you loved. Its hard to understand why we have to go through such pain - and heart ache. Great write, Jacqui. Keep on writing.
Ho! Jacqui, Jacqui - Tears rolled my eyes without my permission when I read this poem of yours - For first time I felt by heart how much you loved D* and how much you miss him. When I read your poems of broken before this I felt but not in this way........ Don't don't worry so much as lover may die but not your love castle which you have built over the years. But as you know well that a thing of past is past forever. We can't bring it back and at same time we can't go back. So think about one who is thinking about 24/7, day in and day out. Hope your respond............
I am sorry for the loss... Jacqui, its difficult to say, to write, to live.. But gal you are extra ordinarily gifted.. you have the power to express what you feel, to pray for him.. You have written your heart out.. I know you have much more to say.. God Bless you.. Keep writing, take good care of yourself...
This is truly a heartfelt, amazing poem Jacqui. I'm so sorry for your tragic loss but your approach in accepting it is inspirational and encouraging. If He thought this is the path to walk, then He must understand the hurt in my talk. So allow me to say it, though you cannot hear. When I say it, in spirit you must appear.-these lines are my utmost favorite and it warms my heart that you can find an alternative way to cope by turning to God rather than shunning him. He needed rest and I'm sure he's in a better place; because of this tragedy you've written these words that will continue his legacy and help keep those cherished memories while giving others hope in death. This is a great poem and I'm sure I'm one of many that will thank you for writing it...
So much feeling, hurt, pain and guilt driven by God. A lovely poem of love.
My heart pours out to you, I am sorry for your loss. The Lord hears your prayers, he sees your many tears. Your poem reveals great faith. May God bless you with comfort and give you peace. Sincerely, Kara

My Condolences, i can feel the saddness in you, and i can feel the emptyness in you, there reality part of this world is that, we dont choose whether to go away from this world and live our love ones in hurt, neither do we choose to let them go away that they live us in hurt, only God has that ability, he gave us Dereck we were all smiles and we welcomed him on this world, but so he took him away, its fine to be in tears, but am sure he will always be with you
