This is why I have such a love, this man was IN my life but such a brief time. We MET on line in 1998. Became friends, then further along in 1999, it became more. DESPITE some of the sickos out there; I will tell you this on Steve's BIBLE, never was there "cyber sex". He believed more in the person INSIDE than that. He never even WANTED a picture of me, saying, "I preferr the real thing than memorex". I left Texas and all behind me in June 2000, moved to North Carolina with him there, and him NEVER seeing me until I drove up, "bag & baggage" as the saying goes. You can't see it well in this picture, but his EYES are what got me...captured my being.

What happened? God decided Steve was of more use to Him, so 07 December 2000, Steve suffered a heart attack, thus putting him in a coma, and forever leaving him as a vegetable. We had our FIRST Christmas together in his ICU room; He turned 36, 29 Dec., in the same ICU unit in Florida. We even had our first and only NEW YEARS together in his ICU. NO, he never spoke again to me or anyone else since 07 DEC 00, his very last words to me were. 'I love you Baby, I'll see you around 6'.

So, this is why I have this song playing, he dedicated it to me on line when he proclaimed his love, and when you see me even now using a SUNFLOWER, that is because of Steve too. He told me once if he was ever to be asked to compare his love for me to a flower, he'd pick a sunflower.....because of the never ending petals and seeds adding to it's never ending.

When Tomorrow Starts Without Me

When tomrrow starts without me,
and I'm not there to see;
If the sun should rise and find your eyes,
all filled with tears for me;
I wish so much you wouldn't cry,
the way you did today,
while thinking of the many things,
we didn't get to say.

I know how much you love me,
as much as I love you,
and each time that you think of me,
I know you'll miss me too; But when tomorrow starts without me,
please try to understand,
that an angel came and called my name,
and took me by the hand,
and said my place was ready,
in heaven far above,
and that I'd have to leave behind,
all those I dearly love.

But as I turned to walk away,
a tear fell from my eye,
for all life, I'd always thought,
I didn't want to die.
I had so much yet to do,
it seemed almost impossible,
that I was leaving you.
I thought of all the yesterdays,
the good ones and the bad,
I thought of all the love we shared,
and all the fun we had.

If I could relive yesterday,
just even for awhile,
I'd say goodbye and kiss you
and maybe see you smile.
But then I fully realized,
that this could never be,
for emptiness and memories,
would take the place of me.

And when I thought of worldly things,
I might miss come tomorrow,
I thought of you, and when I did,
my heart filled with sorrow.
But when I walked through heaven's gates,
I felt so much at home.
When God looked down and smiled at me,
from His great golden throne,
He said, "This is eternity,
and all I've promised you.

Today your life on earth is past,
but here it starts anew.
I promise no tomorrow,
but today will always last,
and since each day's the same day,
there's no longing for the past.

But you have been so faithful,
so trusting and so true.
Though there were times you did some things,
you knew you shouldn't do.
But you have been forgiven
and now at last you're free.
So won't you take my hand
and share my life with me?"

So when tomorrow starts without me,
don't think we're far apart,
for every time you think of me,
I'm right here, in your heart.
