Dear Eliza, It took me years to gain the courage to write you In those years I haven't found a person like you I miss you more every day I think about you in every way I think about your beautiful eyes that pierced into mine, and your long golden hair that first made me stare I remember our first conversation And our first confirmation being our first kiss All of this I miss I remember when you left for school and I stayed home to work like a fool You would call me every night I regret every yell and every fight I remember tough times when you got ill working two jobs to support the bill I saw you getting worse and I cried I cried, I cried, I cried, and then you died I remember recieving the call Our friends and family in awe Funeral arangements, more bills, and cries Years of loneliness and unable to know why I'm unable to love anyone more than you I'm unable to stop thinking about you I see you in my dreams, it gets me wild I see you even more when I look at our child You left us, not because you felt the need but because your body felt weak However, you had a heart that was strong And in our hearts you will live on! With much love, Your Eternal Lover
