with you.

Each day my love grows deeper, unwavering in its demand

to be recognized.

I long to be with you, to hold you in my arms, to

hear you laugh,

to smell your scent, to touch your skin.

At times, the pain is so strong it overwhelms

me.......

I wonder, how can I go on?

I waited for you to awaken, I was certain that you

would fight to live,

certain that you wouldn't leave me.

When you left, I began to wonder if I had imagined

our bond,

our special connection.

I began to question our love and allowed others to

judge what we had.

I'm left now in a state of constant melancholy always

pondering

if I'll make it through the day.

I examine your pictures, your handsome face staring

back at me

with youthful innocence. I look into your eyes, so

full of life,

so unaware of your impending departure.

Those eyes haunt me, for such tenderness and love is

embedded

in their beauty.

I'll continue to wait.......

but the moment I long for most, is the sweet

glorious day

when you look at me and once again say....

"I love you ........"
