A Letter from Rick
|
Gina,
I miss you so much baby, it's only been four months but it seems like only yesterday that I held you in my arms and whispered in your ear how much I love you. Such a cruel disease to take you away from me. Only forty three, way to young, but we packed a lifetime of love in our twenty six years together. When you were seventeen and we got married, little did I know the abuse you went through as a child. I feel like I rescued you. You sure treated me like I was your Prince Charming. You were, and always will be, my Sweet Angel. Our three kids were so lucky to have a mom like you, to be able to stay home to love and raise them full time. My heart is shattered and I feel so empty now. I come home from work and call out your name. Only silence. I still believe what I told you during our last week together, that as much as I loved you and needed you, God loved you more and had a special plan for you. I miss you so much baby, I miss your arms around my neck when you kissed me. I miss your love letters that you would slip into my lunch pail for a nice suprise at work. I saved them all. I miss you sitting next to me on our porch swing watching the sun set. I still sit on my side leaving your side empty. I miss your beautiful face that I used to hold in my hands when we made love. But most of all I miss your companionship, you were my other half. People could never understand the love I had for you, it's so different from the love of a parent, sister, or child, they could never feel the intimacy of our relationship. It's so hard now sleeping on an empty bed wishing you were with me. I still have all your pillows piled up on your side, and still kick the covers off the bed, some things never change. I miss you so much baby, I've tried to keep this letter short and sweet. I'm sorry it's so sad, but you had such an impact on everybody that had the privilege of knowing you, we all miss you so much.
