Our Special Gift

You were always with me by my side,
but the love of my life, then sadly died.
The day you was taken, my world fell apart,
now all that I'm left with, is a sad and lonely heart.
The time we shared was too short and sweet,
still the gift you have left me, helps me feel complete.
While I still have Jack, I still have you,
I see you in his eyes, through and through.
Jack was our gift that only we can share,
no other gift will ever compare,
I look in his eyes every hour of every day,
with him I feel happy, as I know he's here to stay.
