with you

Dearest love,

My heart aches with remember              
Of the time that used to be
Our once upon a happiness
When you were here with me

I dream of you so often
I see your handsome face
The way you used to look at me
The warmth found in your embrace

Your goodbye nearly killed me
It tore my world apart
Yet, hidden deep inside
You are still within my heart

I found your letter the other day
The one before the last
You said you loved me
But now, that’s passed

I still don’t understand
My heart misses you so much
Your love was the very breath in me
I lived for your gentle touch

I put the letter away
But not your memory
You are still my only love
The only one that will ever be…..

~SEA~

I came back to scratch my "oops"---

Sue? I add further that I admire you for this one, and Mag, it's not a competition--but I'm pleased with your honesty!

Man oh man!!  The seas cross and they part,
but I'm convinced they're one and the same.
Sad to say I'm on the same wave......
This was sadly beautiful.

Oh sniff!!

That must have been painful. Even though he's still in your heart, I hope you have gotten over your pain.

Thank you for sharing.
