A yearning inside -- no one else can fill it. The burning feeling -- no one else can heal it. Why do I hunger for more of his love? Why does his number not connect -- Yes, I wonder. The days pass so fast, the months, soon a year! Why can't we just slow it down without fear? The peaceful summer moments spent, seem like a dream -- twas heaven sent! He's opened me up to a world so brand new -- the books and his music to name but a few. All that I hope for is only to stay at least his best friend, I hope, yes, I pray. All my love, Kathleen ( St. Patrick's day card, 1979 )
