The Card

Sometime ago, you gave me a card,
and the words written there touched me so,
as only you have been able to.
I read it each day...it is my most treasured possession.
It simply reads as follows.

The first time you held my hand,
did you know you were
pulling me into your life,
interlacing your fingers
with mine
like a knot we would never
want to untie?
I must have known.

And so I fell in love with you,
in step with you,
walking into the gentle light
of our days together

My hand in yours,
yours in mine,
through the lengthening shadows
of time.
So simple.
So familiar.
So forever.

Thank you for reaching out to me,
for loving me,
for always.

I Love you!

I can't begin to say,
the feelings I had then
the emotion that runs through me today
as I reflect back on when
We were in love in our special way

Tonight, as I sit here and write,
with these words in front of me
I vision you asleep
and wonder,
were you ever mine?

"This too shall pass, for it is written"
