Acid Tears
You are always on my mind, night and day;
I can feel your presence within my heart.
I miss you; I don't know what else to say,
your passing has torn my whole world apart.
Relishing all the happy times we've shared;
I had hoped to enjoy a few more years.
And though I told myself I'd be prepared,
my confidence dissolved in acid tears.
Sadness has eclipsed the light of the sun;
I no longer feel life is worth living.
Wishing there was something I could have done;
no one's at fault; no one needs forgiving.
I cherished the romantic side of you;
holding hands on our walks, we never tired.
We lived a life fate has granted to few;
yet over the years, our time has expired.
Alzheimer's stole your memories away
until, piece by piece, your thoughts fell apart.
And inevitably, Death had His way,
leaving a gaping hole within my heart.
