Never That Far Apart

You were my everything Why did you leave me To you I’ll forever cling From my love you’ll never be free It all started on the beach The first place we met You had heard a loud screech Because I’d gotten wet You immediately came up to me And offered your shirt Kindness from you was a guarantee I was certain by you I would not be hurt After a while a relationship bloomed We had a special connection A bond that would soon be entombed But we’d never lose our affection You asked me to marry you On that beautiful sea shore Sitting in a canoe I said yes and much more It seemed as if it was happily ever after We had a tiny little baby Life was great thereafter Till that day so dark and hazy You were driving home from work Just having a normal day Then you got a call from the clerk And from the road you looked away In an instant it was past You became no more Our happy life didn’t last Where it began on the shore I’ll never forget you Forever you’ll be in my heart Even though that day I can’t undo We are never that far apart ~ 11/2/2017
