The sun that shines then later sets…
it makes our love, for me never to forget.
Even though you are miles away,
you are here with me in spirit and you are here to stay.

Sadness surrounds me as you are not here.
The loneliness felt makes me shed every tear.
You give me support and whisper, "I am there"…
as you tell me on the phone that you do care.

You say you love me and you always will.
This I know as your love I can truly feel.
I trust in you and have faith in us
and the love and nurturing I give to you is a must.

I care for you with all of my heart
and would do everything I can to keep us from being apart.
Someday is not far away, as we will be together soon…
we will watch the sun set, the stars rise and the moon.

We will feel the rain fall upon our face,
look deeply into each others eyes and find that special place.
We will walk on the beach, feeling the sand between our toes…
and we will share ourselves and watch our love grow.

The tears come back but, now they are tears of joy.
We cry together as you give birth to our girl and boy.
Our family is here and lucky we are.
All along the distance between us was not that far.

Before I met you, my life was unfair.
It was filled with emptiness and no one cared.
You may never understand what you have given me…
a chance to love and care for you and to start our family tree.

You are the answer my love… you are my best friend.
The answer I have waited for and I will love you through the very end.
Even after I am gone, the love in our children will shine.
They will have our deepest hearts… both yours and mine.

Until that time comes for me to leave this earth…
we will enjoy our lives without any hurt.
We will share our beauty and ongoing love
and remember to thank the one above.

I also thank your parents too… because they gave you to me.
They see the love that I have for you… which is for eternity.
Our lives are now one as we go through this life…
I love you and thank you forever for being my wife.
