Loving You - Whole

I’ll hold your heart
until it no longer beats.
I’ll breathe the air
along with you,
until it no longer
passes by.
I’ll see the stars
that you see,
the sun when it rises,
and when it sets
I’ll be there too.
I’ll smile and I’ll laugh
along with you,
cry if you feel the need to,
and when the day comes
and you fly with the Angels,
I’ll be standing there
beside you,
wishing I could be there . . .

Too.

Jimmy,
When you write this way, as you often do, it always makes me think, HE knows real love! You write of a relationship we can relate and aspire to. ~L

The fairy tales have their version of love... but this... this is real, this is lasting... this is what makes all the mistakes/kissed frogs worthwhile. This is love - and you've written it so beautifully I'm typing through tears.

Thank you everyone for your read and your comments. Jerry, Lori and Yann...you guys are always there which is wonderful . . .

Lori, wrote this for my wife of 44 years . . . just because we've had those years and still looking forward to quite a few more, good times and bad (well not so much the bad) - but we always come through, together.


And it made my day to see suthern and LeeJ - Hello there Ladies, and now if I could just hear from Marge - I'd be spooked, but, yeah, you know what I mean.
