Our Time Together Was Good

I wrote these words for you, my friend. We never know when we'll reach the end, I only know I have to say, That I'm so glad you passed my way, And through our lives you were such a good mate, When times were bad,and when times were great, And I always knew as time whizzed past, That true friendships are built to last. And now I stand alone to read, This tribute to a friend, indeed, As sadness permeates my soul, I feel that I'm no longer whole, That part of what made me, has gone, I'm left alone to soldier on, Through what remains of my lifespan, Without you here,a lonely man, But my love for you was always strong, And that love will help me get along. So my love, my thanks for sharing, Your life with me, and for caring, Enough for me to see it through, I only wish that it was not true, That you have now forever gone, My one ,true love, the only one.
