You are beautiful. I love you so many ways. You bring to me a warmth that keeps my heart from growing hard with age. There is no greater thing then that energy you give to me and I am forever your man. No matter what. I want to sing in a voice so pure and deep how you have touched me. But I have not the voice for it. I want to write stories that tell who you are and what sublime presence you have, but I have not the skill with a pen to do that justice. I want to paint a picture, a portrait of you, and in that painting all might see at a glance the face that has moved me beyond reckoning and reason. A face that expresses your depth and caring. But I can not wield a paint brush with that skill either. I am at a loss for showing what you mean to me and how you love so completely. It comes down to this, I can only suggest who you are and how you have improved me over the years we have shared our love. 

I have seen many sun rises in my life. Not a single one has been so radiant as you. I have looked into the eyes of so many creatures and have seen grace and beauty therein. Not a single glance into so many living things beneath our warm sun has been so graceful and beautiful as what I see in your eyes. Lips softer then the finest silk and skin so smooth and perfect, you are surely made from the greatest parts of god. You hold my hand in your hands and speak in tones that light my spirit on fire. I can not do anything more then to listen and feel and love you. You have always been and shall always be my single greatest joy in life. The only sadness I have is knowing one day we must die and no longer have these moments of bliss and glorious peace on this planet. My love for you is at such depth that I would stay the hand of death forever if I could. Ours is a story that is told in tales and is rarely found in waking life. You awake the greatest potentials in me and I have lived life beyond any place I might have achieved on my own.

We have reached our final seasons and still I have not stopped loving you more and more every day. I do not see the stamp of age upon your face. I see the same breath-taking woman I met so long ago. The world seems to be moving faster and faster and it always threatens to leave us behind. Secretly, I wish it would. Selfish thoughts on my part I am sure. For if the world would leave us behind, I might get that much more time with you my love. Time away from distraction and fussing. Time to share only for you and I.

I dreamt last night of a comet. It was brilliant and fast. And it moved at near the speed of light across the vast open space. Silently it soared. I dreamed it moved along a path. And near that path was a smaller comet. It was as though they raced one another. It was almost like they played some cosmic game of who can get there first. At first I thought it amazing and wonderful. Then fear began to creep into my chest. Somehow the comets changed shapes and I saw our faces engraved within. I could see where the comets raced towards. It was a line in space and beyond it, there was nothing. You face was perfect and whole in the larger comet. My face was old and not so nice as yours and it was in the smaller of the two balls of light. I dreamt I saw the smaller comet try to head off the larger comet. An attempt to change the coarse both were on. It was frivolous. Both comets met one another at the same time they met that line between everything and nothing. There was an explosion of light and both comets disappeared. I woke crying.

You have taken ill my love and I watch over you every moment I am awake. Even when I sleep, I sleep near to you so that you are not alone. I hold your hand and I remember all the many things we have shared and done. I wrote these words while I sit by your side. And I have read them to you many times. I love you lady of my dreams and my love shall carry over beyond that line between the dark and the light. And when you finally cross over, don’t feel alone, for I will be there with you again in no time at all. Fear should not stop you. Fear for leaving me behind. I will be okay. I want to make sure everything is just right when you go. I want to be sure that all can know and remember the shining light you are. Then, then I will join you again. I love you my greatest joy. I love you more then any love ever written in story. You have been my most wonderful companion in an adventure that has been so complete. Thank you for being my friend and soul-mate. We will soar the heavens together, you and I. And it will be as it has always been... it will be love for eternity. You have my everything.
