My Final Goodbye

My Final Goodbye

Knowing that you are alright my future always looks forever so bright 
now my life has shifted knowing you are no longer insight.  
		
Right then I recognizes that my life will go through 
torture knowing I will never be with you.
	
It's hard for me to accept that you are gone 
and how your life ended on this earth was terribly wrong.

I never expect to see the day
 that you will be so cruelly taken away.	

I am in disbelief 
and stricken with enormous amount of grief.

I do not know what I am going to do
being on this earth all alone without you. 

My eyes of tears pour down like rain
as my heart went into a stage of everlasting pain.

The thought on how you left me I immediately went into a rave
 as I watched your casket goes down into the grave.

I felt my heart broken into two 
knowing how much I will deeply miss you.

As I watched them continue to lower your body into the ground 
I realized you are no longer going to be around.

That’s when I knew it was hard to say my final goodbye
as my tears cascade from my eyes.
