When you left me, I lost my Will to live. To love.
With no good-bye you were taken, and on our very last kiss, your tender, warm lips were replaced by the heat of a sun-baked bronze coffin.
I took a single rasberry coloured rose and I walked away.
I still stay up at night, did you know that?
I still keep hoping you'll knock on my door.
You'll tell me it was all an awful dream.
I still cry over you, can you hear me?
They tell me I have to move forward, but they never tell me how.
Please God, just one more moment to see your face one last time.
I still need you, can you feel me?
I caress your cheek, your face etched on your tombstone
The granite is cold just like my heart when I lose myself in grief.
I want to tell you that I found somebody special. I love him with my entire being and he makes me so very happy and alive. He awakened me. I think you'd really like him. Did you help bring him to me? Your last words were that you wanted me to be happy. I know that we were once supposed to last forever. Remember the picture that I drew of us? Me in the wedding gown? Pink, of course. We hung it on the refrigerator. You used to love my drawings.
I never dreamt that the day we would be in Church together, at the altar, it would be me standing side by side with your casket.
Please help me to let go. Please help me to move forward. If my tears were born of clouds I would flood the world ten times over.
But that's a Testament to how much I love you. To how remarkable you are. Unlike our bodies, our love will never die.
I miss you.
