Me
Today I found our wedding poem. One day I'll scan it and share it.. Love you babe.
You have no idea how much I cry
I never let them know
It's so hard out here without you
I'm just don't let it show
I must pretend all is fine
Everyone thinks all's okay
But what I never ever tell them
Is that I cry for you every day
I was thinking of you today. I know that you have been my best friend, a love of my life, and a genuine companion; that together was almost had it all. Destiny has finally separated. Yet, we will never be apart. A joining of hearts, a oneness of souls. I love you, I always have, and I always will.
I don’t need to bare my soul, you have always seen right through me, and know my heartfelt thoughts. You never fail to tell me when Gean caused problems we agreed on a plan.
You were open, honest, yet loving and compassionate. My Best Friend, my smile in the middle of the day, and my lifeline to this world. I was always told, if you ever marry, make sure to marry your best friend. I never knew what that really meant until I married you. Two was out lucky number. My lifelong dream, fulfilled in what seemed like a mere heartbeat, but was actually 36 years in the making. That was our “meant to be,” moment, the second marriage. a lifetime of never-ending moments became real; finally being together was forever.. Didn't I keep my word until the end?

Another year without you.
The army years only strengthened our love
When someone you love leaves you there is a feeling that you are missing a part of yourself. Like one who has had a limb removed. I constantly reach for the missing limb, my love. I may wish for this uncomfortable feeling to leave me so that I can function properly. However, the truth is that the place in my heart that is empty is our love and you fixing my coffee before work. What is lacking is you sweetheart. It is natural to feel this way because I miss the person that is my other half. After all these years I still remember back in in 1957, when we met for the first time. You were so shy and I was so young.. It took me a while and years of communication by mail for us to realize that it was true and everlasting love. On May 15, 1963 we were to be married. It was September 1965 that we really discovered everlasting love. It was your last night in the USA. We spent all day in Columbus Ga. trying to hold back tears. You were on your way to Vietnam. As your ship pulled away from the dock and you waved goodbye I thought it may be our last. What a joy when you came back shattered but not defeated. After San Diego you retired and I was glad. I have all your love letters from 1960 to 2010. We never stopped writing. If we had something hard to discuss we wrote a letter instead. It was crazy how you called me every hour on the hour from work, waking me up. I was retired but you were not yet. ( I guessed you felt I could sleep during the day with you.) I would pretend to be alert but I’d say to myself what are we going to talk about for ten minutes the next hour. We always had something to talk about. I smile now as I remember those 5 years when you did shift workbefore you retired.
My Deceased Love
Every morning I woke up and see The most handsome man lying next to me. You're the one I cherish and loved, A blessing sent from Heaven above. Our story (1959-2015)
Poem by © Anne Spiller
I have only just lost you (LAST YEAR)the pain is hard to bear
Do I have to go through life knowing you're not there
please some one explain to me why he had to go
are there any reasons I really need to know
I sit here and remember all the lovely times we shared
the talks the laughter of every one you cared
I am told the pain will ease in time
and I will think of you without a tear
but that will be impossible as I need to have you here
You were my very world, my ever guiding star
Just kiss me softly on the cheek and tell me where you are
