A Letter To My Wife

A Letter to my Wife, Dear Joey
By Joeysguy
I lived with my mother for part of my life
Then I married and you became my wife

We both repeated the words I do
My promise to always love you

With the wedding band and saying I Do
My heart and soul I gave to you

On the finger of your left hand
You wore a white gold band

I would trade all my future days
For just one more chance of our yesterdays 

My love now for you feels like so much more
I’m sorry I didn’t know it before 

Looking at your pictures your beautiful face
All those loving words that I misplaced

For many years I knew what life was to be
Now I don’t, since its only me

I’m getting older and have a fear
That I may forget for whom I care

Our 51st anniversary is coming soon
Look for a note inside the balloon

I loved you then, I love you now, I’ll love you tomorrow
I write this with tears and sorrow

Till the end of days
With Love always
