Got it right

I wish I was a better man and lived a normal life,
It was not hard to be a gent,
And look after your wife.
I never married my partner, 
like I said I would one day,
I wasn't even any good to remember her birthday. 
I had it all a future jam packed with lots of cheer,
I owe all that to one great girl cause she  was so  sincere. 
She planned all our adventures, 
She never got it wrong,
Even when she was so ill she managed to stay strong. 
Couped up in bed she never ceased to show her skills in planning, 
Even if to ill to come she'd book a week caravaning.
It's now she's gone I find it hard to step into her shoes,
To even think of such a thing,
I know I would just lose.
