Now ... and forever
 
she slowly sipped her margarita waiting, praying for it's numbing effect to hurry
as she looked at tear stained images of the man she married, the man she so loved

then as a young mariachi plucked the strings of his guitar it was as if .....

he plucked on the strings of her heart

and the notes resonated in her very soul,
with a sad but gentle ache, replaced by a flood of warmth,

just then, her love's words came to her, in a way as never before,
and ... she knew ...

she understood at last .... all she meant to him,
and she knew too ...right then ... right there .... he was with her ...

now ... and forever
