Your Loss

The day you left I cried your loss.
Today I cry - just not as much.
In my heart I feel pain. It just won't 
go away.

Tomorrow will be a brand new day.
I still don't know what it will bring.
it will be a challange, that I know, but
I will face it head on.

I know now that nothing is forever.
You left because it was your time to go.
I understand now that in this world - we
are just passing through.

Another world awaits us, so now my dear
I'll say, goodbye. Until we meet again, I
won't cry no more - your loss.

Before you left - you looked at me. you said - 
I love you, but I must do what I must do and
in heaven, I will be waiting for you...
