There’s a smile on my face but it doesn’t go deep
For where no one can see I weep and weep.
My heart is so broken I’m afraid it won’t heal
I never imagined this is how I would feel.
When the love in my life was taken away
Leaving me alone to face each new day.
The days are so empty; the nights are so long
I’m not even sure where I belong.
For so long we were joined; did all things together
Never thought of the time when our bond would be severed.
Today I’m left questioning myself
Were we wrong to love so much
Letting our lives be so entwined
Were we, for each other, a crutch?
As all these thoughts bombard my mind
Logic tells me my thinking’s not right
For love as strong as the love we had
Made every day of our lives a delight.
Our love for each other, so deep and strong
I still hold secure in my heart
Along with all the memories we made
Before, prematurely, we were torn apart.
True love is always much stronger than death
A concept I always will treasure
So I’ll continue to love, receive love too
In all its fullness, measure for measure.
The conclusion to my ponderings on love is this
That although we are now separated
The love we had is still carrying on
Will endure till we’re reunited.
