I closed my eyes and took a breath and softly said I do. I never stopped to think how hard it would be without you. And as I celebrate again without you by my side. T’would be easier to count the stars then all the tears I’ve cried. This year has been so difficult, but I still feel the same. As the moment that I stood there and proudly took your name. And as the time draws nearer for them to send you home to me. I can not help but dream about the way that it will be. I promised on that day it was for better or for worse. And marriage is just not a part of life you can rehearse. But if this is the worst that we will ever have to face. Then in this year there’s not a moment I would have replaced. I love you more this moment then I ever thought I could. And I know were it possible to be here that you would. I whisper softly to "Our Star", Happy Anniversary. I turn and pull my pillow close wishing you were here with me. With perseverance even the snail reached the Ark. |
