I'm not much of a writer. So I selected this song by Clint Black to post here and dedicate to my late husband. Today would have been our 21st wedding anniversary. This song was played at his funeral. We really loved the words.

I remember well the day we wed
I can see that picture in my head
I still believe the words we said
Forever will ring true
Love is certain, love is kind
Love is yours and love is mine
But it isn't something that we find
It's something that we do
It's holding tight, lettin' go
It's flying high and laying low
Let your strongest feelings show
And your weakness, too
It's a little and a lot to ask
An endless and a welcome task
Love isn't something that we have
It's something that we do
We help to make each other all that we can be
Though we can find our strength and inspiration independently
The way we work together is what sets our love apart
So closely that you can't tell where I end and where you start
It gives me heart remembering how
We started with a simple vow
There's so much to look back on now
Still it feels brand-new
We're on a road that has no end
And each day we begin again
Love's not just something that we're in
It's something that we do
We help to make each other all that we can be
Though we can find our strength and inspiration independently
The way we work together is what sets our love apart
So closely that you can't tell where I end and where you start
Love is wide, love is long
Love is deep and love is strong
Love is why I love this song
And I hope you love it too
I remember well the day we wed
I can see that picture in my head
Love isn't just those words we said
It's something that we do
There's no request too big or small
We give ourselves, we give our all
Love isn't someplace that we fall
It's something that we do


Clint Black


For Bobby 2/14/62~6/13/99

"Love isn't just those words we said
It's something that we do
There's no request too big or small
We give ourselves, we give our all
Love isn't someplace that we fall
It's something that we do" Beautiful lyrics flowerforyou

:heart: :heart: Her mascara does not run,
for the tears no longer fall...
for him
her well is dry...
all the makeup in her bag
couldnt cover the pain shes held inside..
her emotions deeper than oceans
magic not found in any potion
to dilute the stillness in her eyes..
the pain she hides
the tears shes cried
still stain the page
she cannot turn
shes lost as are my eyes
when I stare myself into her world
I want to take her place
in the daytime
the nighttime
my time is your time
I miss the time, in the meantime
til the end of time...a.. long time
Once upon a time he was here with her and they had all the time in the world...then he left that time and its been a long time since they had time to make time...I wish I could freeze time so I could hold him one more time....
Time after time, I wish I had time for more time to make that last time a lifetime:heart: :heart:

I had no idea how that would go over on this site. Been at this a long time now but just wanted to mark the day in some small way. It's all good here today just remembering what a happy day that was. I appreciate your thoughtfulness.
