Goodbye To You

I’m at a total loss for words, I just don't know what to say,

That will even come close to explaining what all I lost that tragic day.

From the moment I saw you it was love at first sight,

In a world so wrong, you made everything feel right.

You took my broken heart and brought it back to life,

I knew then that God made me to be your wife.

On days when I was at my worst you always made me smile,

You gave me hope, you always went that extra mile.

When everything was falling apart, I could always count on you,

To hold it all together, you were my super glue.

I was your motivation just as you were mine,

As long as we had each other, we could walk the line.

We had our ups and downs like most people do,

But no matter what happened my heart always belonged to you.

We had our own demons that could make our lives pure hell,

When we had to battle them though, our love would always prevail.

There is nothing in this world that could tear us apart,

Even through our darkest times, we had one another’s heart.

When I was cornered by the world you always had my back,

You never let me break, not even the tiniest crack.

August 22nd time stood still, as my entire existence was rocked to its core,

Knocking the wind out of me, making me question what I am here for.

We had finally gotten things right, we had so many dreams,

Found our forever home, were doing so well, now nothing is as it seems.

You were robbed of your life entirely too soon, right before my eyes,

I tried so hard to save you, yet failed; now everything in me cries.

Our love wasn't enough this time to bring you back to me,

I can't erase from my mind the horrid things I had to see.

If love could have saved you then you would still be here,

If I could have went in your place I would have done it with no fear.

You were always the strong one, the rock and now you are gone,

And I am stuck in second gear I don't know how to move on.

This is the hardest thing that I have ever had to do,

I never thought there would come a day I'd have to say goodbye you.

I know that when this is all said and done, reality will kick in,

Thinking of living our life with you not in it sucks, I don’t know where to begin.

Most days I can’t even breathe, I am not even going to lie,

How do you tell the person who saved you goodbye?

Until we meet again baby, please know that I will never stop loving you, you are my soulmate,

And the time I had with you is what made my life so great.
