Graveside visit

I visited your grave today

It was a sad occasion too
Didn't have much to say
Took some flowers for you
(I know you cannot hear me anyway)
So I walked along that empty road
It was near the end of the day
Peace and quiet followed me
As I stepped out and strode away
Nobody else was there at all
just me; alone; all by myself...
I read the plaque with your name
Read it over several times it's true
It still doesn't seem real you see
That I can no longer talk to you
I remember your cold face that day
Thoughts that catapulted round my mind
How could this be you; so quiet and still
How was it possible? How could it be?
That you had left us far behind
Left us to cry and grieve...
To this very day; it is difficult to believe...
