Gone at 42

I like to say the 5th of May was when my partner passed away, Upto now a year has passed its got no easier it's here to last. It's hard to think that she has gone, It's harder if you think it's wrong, At 42 her life's cut short, To double that is what I thought, She'd easily reach that ripe old age, To write her book ide miss that page. And add it to her younger age , When life was dancing on the stage. So why did she not have a say on, When she'd reach her final day. But what made cheryls death so sad was stage 4 cervical cancer she had. So ladies take your smear when offered, Cause my partner and I 3yrs we suffered.
