I wish I had the power to turn back time I would go back to the day when my wife became mine If I could have a wish, just one I would back in time when I was married my age was twenty-one If I had the chance to relive my life I would do it again with my same wife In a pocket next to my heart are pictures of my wife I will probably carry them for the rest of my life My girl and I were young when me first met in life She grew up to be a woman and became my wife On that day we married she had a sparkle in her eye No one could be happier than I We were standing there and she looked so pretty I felt as if I won first prize in a lottery I have become more sensitive in these last years A movie a song even a thought can bring on tears I miss that weakness and love that was in my wife Now it’s my weakness trying to go on with my life On that last day I had no time to tell her I love her, or to say good bye I do find a lot of time for me to cry When your married a long time you don’t realize the little you know in your life I found out how much when I lost my wife On mother’s day my wife’s dog had died She was a family member and I cried My wife is my past, my children my present I lost my future when I lost my wife Not a day goes by that I don’t miss her in my life I feel that I m honoring my wife Writing poems about some of her life
