My Beloved, My heart still aches and my stomach is queasy I find myself missing you in so many ways And gentle thoughts of you fill my days I think of all our time that we were together and of our life and our toils that we weathered It seems like just yesterday I saw your smiling face Your joyous laughter’s gone. Our home’s an empty place I feel that the world has stopped turning To be with you is what my soul is yearning So sweetly, we touched each other’s lives Death is between us now. I’m filled with sighs I can hardly go on with this pain. I’ll eagerly wait until we are one again. Until then, All my love…. |

This is so true. It never is easy to be apart from the one you love. |

Beautifully sad. This is the hardest love letter to read. (Into my library) |

Yes, to be apart from a love even for a couple of days is hard, but in this case the pain must be immeasureable. I hope you love comes back to you soon. Randy Meador a life lived unexplored is a life not worth living. |

Thank you all for commenting. This scenario hasn't happened, yet. But, I would feel this way if I did lose my beloved. Thanks again Melton |

Florence, Kit, Sunset, Thanks for reading. We often speak on this subject so that we can cope with the inevitable- A letter I hope to avoid for many years. Thanks again Melton [This message has been edited by 2dalimit (01-09-2002 08:08 AM).] |
