 God gave me Love

When I met you by chance
I knew
      you were a very patient teacher and a gentleman.
 I didn't know
      what was going to happen
I did not know
       you would become my love.
Eight months after,
       You came into my dream…
       We were in love along streets and hand in hand .
Three dreams in one month…
       I was laughing at it.
After that
      the dream became real.
Oh,
      God bestowed you upon me.
Thanks God
      for you gave me love.
I found a harbour
      for my love boat.
… …
God took you away from me.
      I urged you to stay with me in dream,
At ICU's bedside,
      I called you to come back home with me…
      Love kept you 18 months…
Dave, I love you
      I miss you Dave…
I know you are in heaven…
      How are you?
Can you let me know
      about your life please?
I know that
      you worried about me.
I will keep up my life and continue your life here…
      You were my perfect husband and teacher.
I keep thinking  that
       your death was a waste and destruction.
Sorry I could not keep you with me forever.
       But you will be eternally in my heart.
