2017 (Wedding at a Funeral)

I tried and I tried And at times I know I fell short But I tried and I cried and I died As my soul laid in ruins When you said... When you told me... You were leaving I tried and I tried To make you stay... I preyed and I prayed I begged and I begged And I pleaded Down on bended knee I went But you dearly departed And I had no choice but to part... By my waist side laid the Memories I can't escape Haunting me while I sleep Walking with me while... I know I can't continue this But this emptiness is eating away At feelings that once existed Penetrating my presence A hollowed out body That substance once existed in Having to come to grips with the fact that you are no longer... A functioning part of my... This world Existing only in my thoughts And photo albums that don't give justice to what your presence meant to me But know this I will forever miss and love you.
