I sit and wonder how I have gone on
since you left this life going to the great beyond
my existence though grueling
I've made seem happy for the children's sake
putting on a smiling face
their contentment trying to make
I dream of the day when I will again see you
with GOD on my side, I'll make it through
each day grows longer than the one before
time never changes how much you, I adore
although, you have been gone more that three decades
I have never regretted the marriage vows we made
so young, teenagers at the time we were web
happiness and true love, I remember
before you were gone
since that dark day only emptiness I've know instead
I hold tight to our three children
of them you'd be so proud
they never forgot you
this I did not allow!
my love for you grows stronger each day
I'll join you in the afterlife one day, this to GOD, I pray!!!

True love. It's like a magnet, will attract and pull you together. I lost the father of my son and can identify. Love never dies.

Excellent
A very fine write, just as it is. It reminds me of a poem I wrote a couple of years or so ago, it is called:
"Bridges". Here's a link for you:
