I see you–sights of you everywhere I go,
Awake, asleep, eyes closed or open.
I feel you in every moment of every day,
When I’m alone or in a crowd.
You my love are so ingrained in me,
Individuals–yes, but we are one.
We share a history and travel into one future,
Plotting course through this life.
Joys and sorrows, trials and tribulations,
All have made us who we are,
Made us stronger through adversity.
These are not to be regretted, but cherished,
Part of living the life we have been given.
Not one moment would I change,
Would I give back exchanging it for another.
We are who we are my love,
No more from this life could I ask.

Dom DiFrancesco 
ah – this is truly beautiful. a question for you – did she tear up when she read this?? (I would, if someone wrote this for me). you are such the romantic:)
Actually, although she is happy that I write, she doesn’t really read much of it that I am aware of. That is okay with me though, she knows that I love her and I know that she loves me and in the end that is all that really matters. Heck, after almost 25 years of marriage she must still love me or she would have kicked me out years ago. I’m sure that I’m no picnic. :)
Beautiful!
Thank you so much RoSy. :)
Sweet acceptance.
Thank you. :)
This is absolutely amazing! I just have to keep coming back to read it again.
Thank you Julian, I so glad that you liked it and I appreciate the fact that you enjoyed it enough to read it more than once. That in itself is quite a compliment. Thank you.
Dom, this was the poem I was referring to when I commented on my own blog earlier. I fell so completely in love with this. It seems so appropriate to a situation I find myself in, and it spoke to my heart directly. I have never said this to anyone before that i am aware of, but this piece of writing is the most beautiful that I have ever read. You are such a rare talent and such a wonderful person. I feel blessed that you share with the rest of us.
Thank you so much Ionia, I feel honored that you feel this way about this poem. It means so much coming from you my friend and thank you from the bottom of my heart for the nice things you said, I appreciate them more than you know.
Dom, I really loved this poem, wonderfully done my friend! Blessings!
Thank you so much Wendell, I truly appreciate it my friend.
