If I did not tell you
You probably would not believe it
Because it is so unlike me
Or the me that You knew
That you might think that
He's really changed or
Gone off the deep end---
Well, I have,
The day You left me for Eternity--
My life was forever changed
Without my permission or say so,
And so I was plunged into "the deep end"
And given the task to swim
And do my best to survive without You--
But You know that is quite impossible
For you have left from my presence,
But you are and ever will be
Deeply embedded in my heart.
Not a day goes by, but what
I don't think of you and crack a smile
Or shed a tear--
Not a day goes by
But what I want to wake up
From this terrible nightmare
And find You there beside me
Healthy, Happy, Smiling
And so full of Life as
You always were when your
Health permitted you to be.

So I feel compelled to do something
I have never done before and
Probably will never do again--
All in Honor of the Best Thing
That ever happened to me
(You comming into my life and
Becomming that Very Special Someone
For me, and in your Own Special way
Making me feel very Special and Blessed!)

So next week--
I will be making a Special Journey
To a special place to which we loved to go
And while there, Among other things
I plan to have a permanent display
Of my never ending Love for You
Emblazened on my arm--
A Tattooed Testament of our Bond of Love
Our Cherished Life Together--
And of my Special Angel who meant
And means so much to me.

I am never willing to let
Your memory die--so I choose
To be branded with Your Name--
That at least in that way
Wherever I go, LINDA will be there with me
Inseperable and inescapable--
Much as it has been--so will it be.
No matter what happens in my life
Herein and out to my own passing
I will show my Pride and Gratitude
And Honor You who has been such a
BIG part of my life--Which I want
Others to know, and be aware of
That You were and always will be
A Most important aspect and part of my life.

Thus it will serve
In my humble way, as a
Momento of my Undying Love for You!!!!

Oh, David, the beauty and pain that exist in your heart are lovingly woven into this piece. Linda will always be a part of you, whether or not her name is etched in your skin.  

Thank you for sharing your heart.  I wish I'd known your lovely Linda, but through your writings, many aspects of her winning character are revealed.

God bless you,
   Rae

Wow,David...I hear you.Can very much relate to this,although recieving a tattoo was something I never really thought about.Never-the-less,expressing your honor,your dedication,your love like this surely shows what kind of heart you have...and of the tremendous love you shared with Linda.That love is still alive! You will always have her with you.With a bond that strong,I'm sure she sees you and is with you even though she is absent in body.I'm sure of that,man!

Anyway,I've been checking up on you.I haven't written anything on this site for over a year now,I am a bit reticent to say. Marge Tindal has been in contact with me since and had informed me about what has transpired with you.Again,I must say that my heart goes out to you and that you are in my thoughts and prayers.

David~
I think that is a wonderful idea~
Linda would too~

Me ? ... yep, just a tiny blue butterfly,
reminding me of my inclination to soar when the need arises~

Bless you~
