He was her dream, her passion, her heart, and soul._______________________________________________ teenagers and young love. They could see nothing, but each other.______________________________________________ They met when she was fourteen and he was seventeen. She was shy while he was out going and cunning.___________________________________________ At fifteen she was head over heels in love with him. And he thought of her as his angel. Liveing miles apart yet unseperable. They were in love._______________________________________________ When she turned 16 he got down on bended knee and proposed in front of friends and family. She was dressed as an angel and he as a wise man. He couldn't think of a better time or place. Soon after they were married.___________________________________________ At 18 and 21 they were at a loss. Two sons and two years later she was still in love. But he was leaving.____________________________________________ Other wemon and military men got in between them.______________________________________________ Tears and years of pain soon came.
