Devotion To You

You ask how long I'll love you,
I say for evermore.
And then just short years later,
You turned and walked right out the door.

I asked how long is forever,
I guess it's just a few short years long,
As the tears roll down my face,
I watched and you were gone.

Many years of understanding,
Devotion to you, from a caring wife,
Years that I have given,
So you would have a great life.

Giving you all the pleasure,
That life could bring your way,
Making your life more comfortable,
Each and everyday.

The children will ask for you,
I'll turn  when tears begin to flow,
And then tell them a sad story,
Of why their daddy chose to go.

One day when you think of all,
You've walked away from in your life,
You'll think of my devotion to you,
Ans wish that I were still your wife.

Life won't be the same for you,
You won't accept the changes you've had,
You'll think of your home and family,
And this dear will make you sad.
