This acrostic poem, WHEN YOU SAID GOODBYE, has the proper vertical formatting and brings the readers through a painful time when the life becomes that two-edged sword of good and bad.

The big C is a horrible disease, and even with the progress made the question is why with the billions donated a cure has yet to be found?
Sorry for your loss. Most would likely know someone affected.

There is a sense of deep grief and faith within these words as we hope the pain of loss subsides but we never forget our loved ones, a deeply moving acrostic here, much enjoyed, love Dolly x

I like your Acrcostic poem- nice picture presentation- rhyming poem flows well - painting a picture of a seemingly sad story about the loss of a loved one to cancer - the painful journey and ultimate loss- followed by grief- sorry for your loss- Bless AP

Kahpot, your touching poem reaches many whose lives have been ravaged by cancer. You use eloquent phrasing, ie "white clouds parted...", and "...I've longed to fly...".
I found only one error: in the fourth stanza :"go with thought, (you're) never alone), not 'you're.'
Good luck with your wonderful poem.
Cindy

Great job with your acrostic poem which even ends with the words for the beginning lines. You show how devastating it is when a loved one is taken away too soon.

your never alone (you're)
Oneday we'll meet for life ( One day)
lifes resume (life's)

This work has reached the exceptional level

These are heart-wrenching words exceptionally expressed.

My favorite lines were "You stayed with me through pain denied" and "You see my love, I've longed to fly." One did not want to leave; afterwards the other did not want to stay. They just wanted to be together.

Very well done, kahpot.

They say things happen for a reason and when someone says good by it isn't always clear way the left. Yet we at leases we have our memories of the happy times we spent together.
