The days go passing by, but the pain hurts just the same.
For I know we'll never meet, nor will I see your face again.
This is the burden that keeps coming inside of me.
It holds on to me tight, making my heart scream.

I walk along thinking of nothing except you.
The good times we shared give me the strength to do
the things that my body needs to make my soul strong.
There are no doubts now. On this I am not wrong.

I often question why the heavens took you away from us.
My loved ones gather close to me, and tell me words of trust.
“It happened for a reason, baby. It was just her time...”
They all had their moments alone; why couldn't I have mine?

At that moment the tears flow, and I get up and leave my domain.
The happiness I had has shattered; the tears are all that remain.
I sit on the steps and release my anger, my sadness and my rage.
I look to the clouds and wonder why I am still trapped in this cage.

Why'd you have to be taken from me? What is it that we've done?
You were an angel on this Earth; why'd you have to be the one?
I raise my fist to the sky, and curse the world I am forced to see,
until a little shred of hope reveals itself to me.

A gentle wind caresses my skin, so soft and so gentle
I find myself calmer...and a lot less temperamental.
I wipe the remnants of my tears and embrace the gentle breeze
The pain on my face diminishes, and I smile with utter ease.

I can feel you here with me. No words need to be spoken.
This moment alone begins to heal my heart that once was broken.
The clouds break open and the sun shines down...like your hand across my cheek.
It's almost like you're comforting me. My soul is no longer bleak.

I realize that my pain is gone as I look up to the sky.
The wind dies down and the clouds close up, making the sun subside.
The bitterness in my soul is no longer seen, nor in view.
The only thing I can say right now is a simple “I love you”.

The memories of you are golden, they're with me to the end.
When I die, I know that I will see your face again.
I wanted a way to tell you how I felt. So simple, yet so true
I hope this reaches you in time; it was written just for you.
