Gone To Soon

I miss you 
I miss her more than words could say 
I couldn't even look at her the same way
Her skin lost of life... dull and pale
It felt like a horrible fairy tale
 ALS took her from me too soon
While I was looking at the bright blue moon
I prayed to God to not take her from me 
I just wanted to run away and flee
Showing her my love through sign language 
I could hardly even manage 
 missing her more every day 
For her to be unable to say 
The words she wanted to express 
All the sadness, hurt, and stress
I thought I had her for longer 
But I never thought to wonder 
What it would be like without her
I love you more than I ever showed 
I know you are up in heaven looking down below 
At this world that was once much brighter 
You were a very tough fighter
