    About this ebook

    Dominic Clemow first began to write poems as a way of expressing feelings of sadness and loss after a relationship ended. His interest in poetry has grown and developed since then. He writes with feeling and passion, particularly about the pivotal moments of life, such as going on a date, marriage and break-ups - times when we are faced with choices that may transform our lives for ever. I love you more than words can say, More and more every single day, You’re the one I think about before I go to sleep, And the one I’m happy with, so I’m yours to keep.

      A Letter To My Beloved Sibling

      Mar 18, 2022

      Here is a letter I have written to my brother who overnight was given a short period to live. The shock is enormous. To make matters worse, he does not have children and looks after his bedridden wife who cannot even lift a hand or foot and needs eve

      Dear Daddy

      May 20, 2019

      Yours is the first face I saw when I came into the world. At first, I was scared. It was so cold and bright. But then I heard your voice. I remembered it immediately — warm, deep and comforting. I didn’t expect you to be so big. My whole body fits in

      Mar 7, 2022

      MY BELOVED ANGEL, I am nearly mad about you, as much as one can be mad: I cannot bring together two ideas that you do not interpose yourself between them. I can no longer think of nothing but you. In spite of myself, my imagination carries me to you.

      Dedication

      This whole book is about love, love that is

      making you smile everyday, love that is

      growing even tho’ you live away, love

      that is making you feel like the happiest

      person alive. The poems have more meaning,

      become more written and are

      more clear than before because of how

      this person makes you feel.

      Tho’ love doesn’t always end well even if you do all

      you can to make it work

      You would travel the world to see them

      You would love them more every day

      You would die for them

      You would do anything for them.

      Tho’ within my mind you always remain,

      in my thoughts you will always be

      A piece of my heart you will always have

      But this love, this love can never be.

      Because of you.

      Special thanks

      My first special thanks goes to Arthur H. Stockwell Ltd. Of course, without you none of this would have happened. I thank you so much.

      I would love to thank my mum, my dad and my two brothers, Brian and Jordan, for their very appreciated guidance; my adorable niece, Tia; my nephew, Leo; their mum, Lisa, and Gerald Toy. I would also like to thank the whole of Sainsbury’s and my great colleague friends, with special thanks to John Slater, Flic-Main-Reade, Sue Jones, Chris Old, Danny Vincent, Bryn Oldfield, Steve Kevern, Megan Hicks, Alison (manager), Paul Reid, Sharon Kelly, Mike
