50
50
By joeysguy
On April 7th we had a small wedding
It was a life with you I was getting
50 years ago you became my wife
I said I do for the rest of my life
In all our years I never cried
I do it now since you died
At night is the loneliness
All the time is the emptiness
I wanted to get a new engagement ring for you
Maybe even repeat the words, I do
The guilt I felt because of no goodbye
At the same time I also wanted to die
I loved you so many years of my life
I will always love you as my wife
I’m still finding things hard to do
These were easy things for you
Until again it’s you and me
Happy 50th anniversary
