I’m so full up with sadness
I don’t know what to do
My mind just keeps infilling
With memories of you.
I’m re-living every moment
Of the last days I spent with you
This thinking seems to penetrate
Everything I’m trying to do.
I’m told I need to let you go
But I don’t know if I’m able
The constant strength of your love for me
Was what always kept me stable.
I’m feeling very wobbly
Trying to move forward alone
Often now I stumble and fall
Walking along on my own.
As day by day time passes by
I hope to regain my strength
And gradually as hope returns
My single life will commence.
I am so very, very tired
Struggling every day
Living’s been extremely hard
Since you passed away.
As I move into the future
Trying to love individually
I will never, ever forget you
For you were such a part of me.
All your input into my life
Made me who I am today
So as a tribute to all you did
I’ll keep smiling through the grey.
It won’t be long before things become
No longer grey but black and white
I’ll emerge into a sun-filled day
From the dreadful grief-stricken night.
