I hold your memory tenderly
Deep within my heart
I thought the day would never come
When you and I would part
We just simply always were
As one since we met
Only teens when love prevailed
We promised in wedded bliss
Til death do us part
You kept your word
You never strayed from me
You always showed your worth
You were there through the tears
You were there through the smiles
You were by my side
Through all of lifes trials
You were my strength
My safety my all
Until one day
Fate paid a call
I miss you my angel
There's a deep hole in my life
I call out your name
In my sleep at night
I ache for your presence
For your reassuring words
I ache for your gentle arms
To wash away the hurts
I always felt comforted
Locked in your embrace
Your gentle hands
Stroking my face
My tears flow unchecked
For my great loss
I miss you my angel
But I'll wait
This life is but a mist
Throughout all eternity
We'll be together again
The moment I'm set free
Set free from this life
Set free from this pain
Set free to be with you
But for now I must remain
I hold your memory tenderly
Deep within my heart
I thought the day would never come
When you and I would part
I miss you my angel
But you and heaven must wait
Until God opens up
The pearly gates
...For me
This poem is in loving memory
of my darling husband who went
home on Valentine's day 2004
