I look up from my screen and see her,
Her photograph sits there looking at me,
The love of my life for almost forty years.
That love was so strong,
It will always be so,
But she was taken from my life
And sits now amongst the stars.
My world on this earth had ended
But she will be waiting for me.
Then the day came when I met her,
A new lady came into my life
And love returned,
Returned in a different way,
A love that gets stronger each moment,
Each moment of our lives together,
We know we will be together for ever.
The love of her life had passed
And he too was with the stars.
So in our new life
There are four of us,
Two with the stars
And us two on this earth
With a love so deep
But so different.
Love changes everything.

Love is not a temporary feeling or emotion..emotions and feelings sometimes change daily..but true unconditional love is eternal
