To move forward

It's still so hard to live a life without my partner Cheryl,
I feel I need to keep my wit's as days can end in peril. 
It's hard to cope with life as one we both would help each other, 
Problems solved and jobs we'd share without a hapenny of botha. 
So without a pair and down to me life just isn't the same, 
The house our home our castle which was has lost our beautiful dame. 
I have our son but he's his own his future looks so bright, 
I'm proud and grateful that Cheryls short life We managed to do it right, 
It won't be long before he leaves and makes his dreams come true, 
It's then I think my work is done and begin to live life to, 
It won't be easy it will be hard but I have to try my best, 
I've suffered since my lover passed and it's sure to be a test, 
I've had a lot of outside help to guide me through the low, 
It's now my turn to show I've coped and grab it by the core.
I won't get over what I saw it will be always there, 
But life won't always be that cruel and it really just shows I CARE.
