Your love gave me the strength Strength to face the future To face the past, the pain Your existence gave me hope Hope that made me believe In myself, in love These lessons learned Gave me courage Feelings long denied Now supplied by you, Only you…for a long time. Your departure left me numb Weakness and pain overcoming my strength Demolishing my world of safety My would of love Causing guilt, fear, sadness A depressing sadness That erodes my strength That erodes my love. Leaving us to remember To not forget what you taught How you felt… How you loved You're gone now And we can't forget you, And in return All we ask is that you… Don't forget us.
