By You We Stand Strong
In this saddest of times there are many who see your pain
Surrounded by people who love you but how to help they can’t attain
Everyone saying they are there for you but even that becomes numbing
Those who surround you are at a loss, the words are not forthcoming
For you both there is nothing but sympathy and understanding
At the same time we want to share our strength, together we are banding
We wanted for you happiness and excitement, this is so unfair
Despite the sadness you must never allow it to become despair
Both of you are making a selfless decision, for this you should be proud
Doing what is right is never easy and grieving must be allowed
This will be carried in your heart for a lifetime but you will find a way through
Moving forward is your only option, inner peace you must pursue
You have the right to be angry to be sad and to question why
Always remember you have each other and again you will try
Sometimes things happen we don’t understand but you can’t let it consume
There are others who still need your love in order to bloom
Your circle is unbreakable, by you we stand strong
Step by step you will be ok, feelings all over the place no right or wrong
