Buit I Didn'T

BUT I DIDN'T When just a young married couple starting together on life's way, sometimes I wanted to tell you how much I loved you each day, But I didn't. I often thought it would nice as we walked along the sand, watching the sun going down, to reach out and take your hand. But I didn't. I was busy doing lots of things that so many wives must do, and should have taken more time to be there, caring for you. But I didn't. Retirement's come, I now have time to do all those things, you'll see. But now your memory's fading, I was sure you'd remember me. But you didn't. Use the time you have while here by expressing your love each day, either to husband, family or friend never having regret to say, But I didn't. Copyright © 2000 Vivien Wade
