That Someone Special

Published by Family Friend Poems June 2007 with permission of the Author.

She is the apple of my eye,
The reason that I live.
She is all that I could wish for.
My heart to her I give.

It is for that someone special
These words that I do pen,
To thank her for always being
My wife and my best friend.

She has the will to live until
The last breath she does take.
There is the love within her heart,
Such good memories to make.

She is the sunshine in my morning,
The star that's in my sky,
And if I should ever lose her,
Then I would surely die.

She stands always at my side,
No matter what comes our way.
She comforts me with steadfast love
Each and every day.

She carries many burdens,
And her heart is sometimes broken
By all the thanks she never gets
And all the words unspoken.

I know her life is not her own.
I always seem so needy,
And asking her to do one more thing,
I feel so really greedy.

How can I ever thank her
For all she has done for me?
I can only give her all my heart
And love her to eternity.

I hope that when the end comes,
And she meets God face to face,
He will tell her that in Heaven
She has a special place.

My wife and I recently got married and we've been together for 13 years and then we just tied the knot and we're falling apart what do I do?

Sorry that this reply is three years late. I just discovered your message. Even though we do not know each other, that does not mean that there are people (strangers) who do not care or share in your daily problems. I have learned that you cannot make your spouse love you. If it is truly "over" in their heart and mind, no matter how badly you want them to love you they won't. I had to find that out the hard way with a unfaithful wife, and it broke my heart. After telling her that I forgive her for having her affair and that that we could still work through it and save our marriage, I did not realize, that for her, it was "over." All the crying, begging, and pleading for her to come back to me was not going to save our marriage, so I had to accept her decision and move on with my life somewhere else. For eight weeks every single day, I sat on the beach at Pensacola, Florida, searching for answers! It's Jesus!
