You could never take anything less than perfect
That's why I wondered why you took me

You were the best thing that happened to me
and I'll remember our life for you

The way we met, at a coffee shop, how cliche
but you thought it was cute

First date, first sweat, first suit, first smile,
first laugh, first kiss, first love

We hung out more and even more
met your parents, and you mine

The beautiful chapel, huge cake. I admit it,
I don't remember much, just you

Happiness settled in like an old friend,
you gave me a present

But then suddenly you were gone.
one day here, the next not

You just left, got up and left me,
with barely anything

The scars are still red, but I've forgiven you
I know you couldn't wait

I'm kneeling on the ground, putting a rose where others lay
you can't imagine how I feel

A ray of sunshine personified in our
wonderful child toddles over

He looks at the odd gray stone in the ground
that's all that's left of you
