My best friend is waiting for me.


My best friend is my Wife, I’m deeply in love with her.
We were travel buddies and drove all over this great country together.
I will never forget those times.

My is an artist, he painted a painting of her and me driving away.
With big smiles on our faces looking at each other with love and excitement in our faces and eyes.
My captured his mother’s expression on her face perfectly.
He gave the painting to us on our 25th anniversary.
His mother cried and hugged him with tears of love in her eyes.

Every morning I would roll over and put my arm around her, kiss her, and tell her I love her.
One morning I could tell something was wrong before I open my eyes.
Her body was cold and the bed was wet, I jumped out and ran to her side.
Yelling her name and pulled the covers off her.
I realized my love has left and gone to Heaven.
I knelt beside the bed and prayed to the lord to bring her back.
I can’t live without her Lord don’t do this to me.
Reality set in; my wife passed, and I could do nothing about it.

After the funeral I stopped talking to my relatives and friends I became a recluse.
I couldn’t go into the travel trailer ever again.
The memories would bring tears to my eyes. causing me to drop to my knees weeping.
As I walked to the corner store my head would be down to never smile again.
From time to time I would buy her favorite snacks by mistake.
I always enjoyed buying her stuff to make her smile and kiss me.

I keep all her stuff and would touch the items to bring her memories back
The memories were all I had left of her.
As time went on the smell of my love left the home.
I would sit on the couch still with my head down, until the wee hours of the morning.
I didn’t want to go to bed in our bedroom anymore.
Because I would find myself reaching over to hold her and tell her, I Love You.

My would visit every week to see how I was doing.
Sometimes we would sit and cry together
Other times we would laugh about the silly things she would do.
My loved his mother as much as I did, if not more.

One day my came to visit, he was concerned about me.
Depression sat in, I was having thoughts of going to heaven to be with my wife again.
My said Dad if you die I will have no one, please don’t leave me.
I said I will never leave you, my , because inside I know how it felt.
This is when I realized I must move forward for my .
He said Dad Mom is still here, I hear her voice every day talking to me.
I can hear her say, I Love You and I can help if you want.
All you have to do is ask and I will answer you.

The next day when I woke up I went to the kitchen.
As I was entering the kitchen I could hear a voice say.
What are you going to make for breakfast darling?
It was my wife’s voice I heard, it felt like she was standing right next to me.
I could see her in my mind smiling at me with love and excitement in her face and eyes again.

My was right, my wife the love of my life never left me.
She is now a part of me for the rest of my life.
She still makes me laugh and smile like before.
I talk to her every day now.
Most importantly, I know she’s alright and hasn’t forgotten us.
Her spirit will be with us forever until we unite again to become 1.

Thank You For Reading My Story,
Thor (GodOfThunder).

I'm sorry for ur loss ! Thank U for sharing ur story ! I was very moved by it. As I read on and on, I started to cry. U r truly blessed. Not many people have that kind of love. That is a love that I have wanted, things happen, and people change.
Don't look down, U will never see anything by looking down. True love shines down on U, look for her smile looking towards Heaven. And if U stop looking down, U will always see the signs that r with U !
HUGS

So very poignant and thank you for sharing this with us. I lost my husband 15 months ago and had many of those very same feelings. I still find myself talking to him, hoping he can hear me. He would be shocked at all the changes in his little hometown. God bless you and if I could just say one thing, CHERISH those memories.

Life is too short for moaning and complaining, life is for living it to the fullest. AND I DO!
