I will love you forever. I will miss you each time we are apart, and I will look forward to each meeting with great anticipation. I must find you. I must love you. I must let you know that you mean more to me than anyone else. Kids don't count, you know. You have yours, and I have mine, and they mean everything to each of us. I know how much you love them, because I know how badly you were hurt all those years ago. I let you down, and I am sorry. I live with this particular sorrow all the time.
I don't sleep at all well any more. I am hoping for just one more occasion of resting my head on your chest, and sleeping soundly. Just one.
