This Is For You, My Dear

The years that we have been with one another,

Have been the most blissful, unlike any other.

With you each day is a memory,

With its own happy and sweet story.

You have been my strength through all these years,

Though you may not always be somewhere near.

You advice, you scold, you listen, you command,

But ultimately you concede to my demand.

Even across the miles between us now,

Your are near me. Wondering how?

Deep inside I can feel you right here with me,

When I close my eyes, its you whom I see,

Isn't that as close as one can be?

With each passing day, life goes on,

Making our bond more and more strong.

My Lord! I have just one thing to say,

Just let him be with me, till my last day.
