That dreaded phone call you never want to hear,
The words of your passing still ring fresh in my ear.
Our lives together began to flood right before my eyes,
Dropping to my knees broken searching towards the skies.
I didn't want to believe all that I was sadly being told,
I burst into tears there was no-one near for me to hold.
The pain was so intense that I didn't know what to do,
There'd never be another moment that I'd get to be with you.
There were so many words that you needed still to hear,
So many moments for which we needed you to be there.
The hardest part though would definitely have to be,
Telling our daughter with her crying eyes looking back up at me.
Together we find strength and together we both cry,
It doesn't ever really get any easier as time goes by.
You're alive in my mind and you keep a warmth in my heart,
Our memories and moments mean we're never far apart.
I miss you so much and wish you were still close by,
I can only think they needed another angel up there in the sky.
Your love and your memory will never leave but only grow,
We love and miss you so much and just needed you to know.
