For Kevin

 

OUR ANNIVERSARY
Two years ago we said, "I do,"
After years of being together.
We both knew, we loved each other and
it would last forever.
But now this day, which should be a date, 
is filled with sadness and tears.
Our "Till Death do us Part" has claimed it's place and robbed us
of many more years.
There's never a moment, that you're not on my mind,
And I'm missing you more every day.
The comfort and peace, I keep trying to find
Seems so very far away.
I know you're with me, I feel you here,
but, not in the way, I would wish.
I miss your laugh, your voice, your eyes,
I miss your every kiss.
This separation is just for a while, for that I am very glad,
Yet, when I think of all the empty days,
It makes me feel so sad.
I know I'll see you on the other side and then all will be fine,
But until then, I'll go through the days seeking God's grand design.
I love you so, and always will,
I know you love me too.
And that is the thing, that I'm holding tight 
The thing that's pulling me through.
So I'll wish you Happy Anniversary 
even though we're worlds apart.
And tell you again, that I love you,
And I do with all my heart.

About the Author
I lost my husband, Kevin on April 28, 2014. It is obviously a devastating time and I find that writing can prove to be therapeutic at time s.
