A Day of Thought

I turned sixty today
Almost
Without permission
Whilst my love left so early
So much younger

My mate
My loves bro has gone too
And
I’m sixty feeling guilty
Maybe
I took their years

It’s a funny space nought to sixty
When it’s empty

Loved ones stolen
Forever

A big gap never filled

A missing Wife
A missing mate
A missing Dad
A missing Uncle
A missing Sister

A broken heart

A Day of Thought
