Firstly, I think we'll begin by looking skywards,
and thanking those in the heavens above,
because we know we've been blessed to have shared you,
we know that we've been blessed with your love.
I could go on but the major point I want to stress is this:
I love you with every fiber of my being, my very soul,
for <NAME>, with you in my life I feel complete,
yes, you are the one that makes me completely whole.
And I?ve never felt prouder marching by your side,
and I?ve worn your dog tags every day since then,
and if you ever ask me to march with you,
I?ll say, without hesitation, ?yes, where and when?.
I don't know how we are going to continue without you,
so I'm going to carry you here with me, in my soul,
for with you in my life, I did feel complete,
yes (NAME), you are the one that makes me completely whole.
I love your passion for sports and your athleticism,
I love your enthusiasm for life in general, your spirit,
you will come up with something fun to do at the drop of a hat,
it seems that your motto is: "This is life, let's be in it".
I was deeply in love with you after only a few dates,
and without being presumptuous, you were in love as well,
you made your commitment very clearly, very early on,
you obviously knew that we had a tale to tell.
And never with recriminations or ?I told you so?,
you just gave me your unconditional support, your love,
and I know I?ve been blessed to have shared you,
know that I?ve been blessed by the heavens above.
Like the time we spent all day fishing,
we?d been quite successful and had a stringer of fish,
but then I went and lost the lot, you were quite upset,
and I was sad for a while, with many a forlorn wish.
Because you taught me that everything is possible,
and now I find a way, because you gave me the will,
and I know you stayed with Mom as long as you could,
but at the end of the day, she?s really quite ill.
I appreciate having you close by to ask advice,
and for the record, you?re great to spend time with,
and this feels like the longest you?ve ever been away,
and now I?m struggling, I?m struggling to live.
So, you will continue to be my lifelong companion,
and I know at times, that's going to be pretty hard,
but maybe I'll take you skydiving or parasailing,
maybe I'll even pay for a meal with your library card.
Even after three years, I'm absolutely crazy about you,
but I really miss you on those fishing weekends,
I still get a pain in my heart when I know you're going away,
but look, I don't want to spoil your "passion" time, with your friends.
You are the love of my life,
which just happens to coincide with Valentine,
so quite fittingly, I wanted to tell about a love,
about a love, that luckily is all mine.
Firstly, I?d like to begin to begin by looking skywards,
and thanking those in the heavens above,
because I know I?ve been blessed to have shared you,
I know that I?ve been blessed with your love.
I remember when you came home and said you were born again,
and I think that rebirth made you a better man,
you seemed kinder, closer, you said ?I love you? more,
and spending time with us became your lifelong plan.
Do you know how I truly idolize you?
I think of you and my chest swells with pride,
because I know I couldn?t have picked a finer father,
I know I couldn?t ? even if I?d tried.
I?ll never forget you always getting a hotel with a pool,
just for Joe and I, you?d drive for hours and hours,
and I?ve learned so much from you,
like count the pennies, but always smell the flowers.
Although my first husband was a very good man,
and truly, we had many good times together,
but I know I've never felt this way before,
because what we share will last forever and ever.
I also can't believe the depth of feeling I have for you,
truly, it would reach to the bottom of the deepest sea,
and I'll never forget the our first date with your hand on my back,
what ran through me I can only describe as electricity.
