I could not go 
I could not eat
I could not smoke
I could not breathe
I could not live 
I could not die
I could not go 

I had to go 
I had to eat 
I had to smoke 
I had to breathe
I had to live 
I had to let the love die 
I had  to go without him there by my side

I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
