So Hard To Say Goodbye
We had found each other
In the most unusual way
Not everyone was happy about it
But their opinions didn’t matter
You became my whole world
And I became yours too
We had our share of problems
But we always worked them out
Our spur of the moment wedding
Was the most amazing day
We thought we had forever
But fate decided to intervene
The sicker you got
The more we realized
We have to make the most
Of whatever time we had left
You held on as long as you could
Keeping your sense of humour intact
Holding on to you as you took your last breath
Was the most difficult thing I’ve ever had to do
We were robbed of our forever
And the sadness never really goes away
Our first anniversary was full of sorrow
Since you died 6 days before
The emptiness is overwhelming
And I struggle with it every day
You’ve been gone for twice as long
As we had even known each other
Life is so unfair sometimes
42 was far too young
Your suffering is over now
But mine remains
Being forced to say goodbye sucks
But it has taught me how to be strong
