Together Again Each evening as I look up into the sky, Oh how hard I try not to cry. I see you there, looking down at me and think of what someday will be. Together again. The songs you loved still make me cry and no matter how hard I try "Remember When" brings to mind of the time we will be Together again. As I lay in bed at night I pray I do not see the light. I pray the love I have for you will make me strong and see me thru until we are Together again. There were so many things left to say but my love they will have to wait until another day. A day I hope will not be too far along when we are Together again. Does God know what he has done when He separated two who were one. Now I will do my best to stay around until the time God decrees that we can be Together again. by Julie L. Citrano
