Every morning was a challenge, getting myself wanting out of bed.
Something happened days ago. I’m finding life through you instead.
All the tangible was useless, no meaning in my life last week.
Today has visible meaning; the days don’t look so bleak.
Your words are always with me, they have helped me survive.
Without you, I fear I would be passed; a short time with you and I’m revived.
In the darkness of my closed eyes, you are in my dreams.
The few times that I’m terrified, you chase them away it seems.
When things become unbearable, I simply think of you and smile.
I wish I could have been with you; I’d have gone the extra mile.
Your caring words mean more to me than you’ll ever know.
You are one of God’s special gifts; I’m sure he cried to see you go.
