Our Story

That day in June happened so fast Something had crept in from your past In that moment I watched you shed tears As the doctors confirmed our worst fears Seeing you scared, worried & shocked It was the day our world was rocked Tests were taken to give us answers The news was broken that it was cancer My heart shattered, my mind was racing We couldn't believe what we were facing Your brain was the hostage, the cancer had spread That was the moment you wish you were dead I was so afraid this would happen one day No signs, other than a migraine in May We embraced and I held your hand tight I'm here for you always, this is our fight I went from wife to nurse overnight Trying my best to do everything right Watching you suffer hurts so deep But our vows is my promise to keep For sickness & in health, thats for real A simple kiss was what sealed the deal Now we are here, living that line Caring for you, the responsibilty is mine Everyday is different, good and bad days Uncertain future, is what doctors say But when times are tough, we stick together I love you baby, always & forever
