Our Last Chapter

Broken and Undone

Sometimes I feel broken and undone,

Like a lost and wayward one,

The certainties I counted on,

Have faded and are all but gone,

What happened to my happily ever after?

Growing old together was supposed to be our last chapter,

Then cancer came and shattered our dreams,

Our golden years together were cut short, it seems,

Until death we do part was a vow we made,

I didn’t need to be afraid,

It never happens to us, until it does,

What could have been, never was.
