When my loved one passed I sank in a sea,
Nobody can know what it’s like to be me.

Sitting here feeling all alone in pain,
Heartbroken and tears I cannot maintain.

Friends try to console with words so kind,
Someone who truly understands I cannot find.

Pain so excruciating when I hear your name,
Wanting to lash out and place the blame.

Why me Lord?  I want to scream and yell,
Being without you here is a living hell.

No, I am not just sitting here grieving,
Nothing makes sense I am not believing.

Time can not mend my broken heart,
My life you were the biggest part.

So, stop telling me soon it will get better,
Looking through photo’s I find an old letter.

I grasp it and hold it close to my chest,
Reading it I know you were the best.

You promised to love me till the end,
You kept your word and now I must mend.

Nothing will be the same without you dear,
Memories I have and keeping them near.

Time no matter the length heals all,
It knows exactly the depth you fall.

Time was created by our Father above,
He knows it best and sends His love.
