"Stone upon Stone"

I once built a stone wall.... Not very long, just enough to mark between here and there.... I made sure it had two flat stones side by side for sitting,... for talking,... and listening.... Sometimes I go there and sit, waiting for you.... Thinking you might just show up one day.... Sometimes waiting is the hardest part.... But I wait until the sunsets, and sometimes until the sun rises. I wait for you, looking over my land and yours.... Knowing God meant us to be together, no matter what others say.... The last time we spoke you said I was more courageous than you. Not true,... I just know what we have is too precious to lose... That is why I sit tall upon this stone wall, waiting for you. Knowing that your heart loves me,... knowing that I love only you. 

I'll wait, however long it takes.... 

And if I wobble and fall,...

because you are not there to steady me.

Like Humpty Dumpty breaking into a thousand pieces.

I will lay there knowing...... you are the only one who can put me back together again.

The deep feelings in your writing are almost too intense, yet how you challenge yourself here is amazingly courageous too. How hard to apportion challenge with perhaps a sense of doubt. You write with a great heart and finesse, sir.
