I'll never understand <br />why you couldn't wait, <br />but time brings an acceptance <br />and with it, a richness for having loved <br />and having been loved. <br /> <br />I will always be indebted to you <br />for what you gave me. <br />Your heart breathed life into mine <br />when I thought all was lost, <br />and I'm me, because there was an us. <br /> <br />I miss your warm breath on my nape, <br />your tender whispers in the night, <br />but now it's a new touch that thrills, <br />and it's his eyes that overflow with love. <br /> <br />They see the me you were first to find, <br />but he reaps what you so gently sowed. <br />I’ll never forget what we had, but <br />I can think of you now without tears <br />for another has taken your place.<br /><br />C.J.
