It Isn't Easy

It isn't easy still being in love with you!
And not being able to see or touch you every day.

There are these times when,
I'd give anything
Just being able to gaze into your eyes.

Being able to hold you in my arms,
Even if
Only for a few moments.

I feel so incomplete,
I feel as if
A part of me is missing without you here.

As time has passed,
And we're not together?
I know that this is how things must be.

But it gets difficult without you.
I can smell the scent of your perfume,
It doesn't make it any easier to bear.

Every day without you reminds me,
Of our simple pleasures, we've shared.
You've added so much richness to my life,
I'll miss you even more.

So, don't forget that I love you,
And I'm thinking of you every waking moment
I'm counting every second until the moment
We are together again side by side.

Shannon, I love you more today, 
And more than I did yesterday.
I'll love you even more tomorrow. R.I.P

Hi, Heidi! Nice name, my sister-in-law has that very name. Thank you for your comment, it comforts me, that means a lot. I'm just a sentimental ole' fool, who refuses to let her go. That was my wife, and I love her madly still. You brightened my day saying that, again thank you. Best of Wishes, William
