My wife, my lover, my friend

There have been so many poems about love break up, and pain

So I thought I should prevent the opposite side of the coin!

 

When so many years ago I said I do

I meant it then and it is still true

You’ve always been the one for me

From the moment I asked you on my knee

When times were rough you held me high

Trusted me to never say good-bye

Stood by my side in good and bad

Shared all the sorrow and joy we had

Popped me up when I was down

Even tolerated my occasional frown

Laughed politely at old jokes I told

Gave me warmth when I was cold

When life was tough and pretty bad

You were uplifting instead of mad

When my parents moved on I cried

But you were always on my side

Your greatest gift, children one to three

For that I forever thank you on my knee

As a lover you made me proud

Let me float on that seventh cloud

You are mother, wife and friend

And my love for you will never end

When the time comes where I have to go

There is something you will need to know

Even though I may not be around anymore

My love will be with you forevermore
