BITTERSWEET

Why did I have to lose the most beautiful person

(Inside and out)

That I've ever known?

And how could he leave me

Without even saying good-bye?



Maybe it wouldn't have been so bad

If he'd have been someone else,

But he had to be so different;

So...

Special.



But I guess it's always the really sweet guys

Who make you love them,

Make you suffer,

Make you stay up half the night

Thinking about them,

And dream about them  

When you finally do get to sleep.



And I know that he'll forever remain

Deep inside my memory,

To remind me life's not sugar-coated;

It is painfully

Bittersweet.  

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I was reminded how bittersweet life can be when my old Co-worker,  friend,and secret crush,Tim Markel,left me to join the Navy.
