Angel World Of Love
In tribute to Frederick G.W.V. West 1945-2009

I lit a candle
I miss you even though we divorced
I sometimes wonder what went wrong
But in the end we became strong
and now you're in heaven, your family still lives on
and in our hearts you will always belong
When we met, you lifted me from the depths
So with this candle I lit for you
I am glad I took that photograph when I did
It was on that day 30th September 2009
You had your favourite blue sweater on
I will always remember your softness of our romance
I said goodbye in the Chapel of Rest...I still see you there
But we all knew you had already gone to your final resting place
You are still within our hearts....
You went on 20th November 2009 - a shock although expected
You knew I had just had brain surgery (pituitary tumour)
and I knew you had your health problems too...
I didn't expect you to go so soon...
But I'm glad we began to help each other again...
I still have your texts you sent thanking me for my help
and offering to take me to dinner last November 2009 -
But I went alone with you in my heart...
I felt sad and bewildered....
Our family stay strong together...
and our son is the miracle we made in love....
R.I.P...and I will move on now...
but you will always be there
in the angel world of love -
even though we divorced....
