I place my hand upon your cheek
The words are hard for you to speak.
I nod my head and try to smile
You’ve been fading for a while.
And now you lay upon this bed
Barely alive, almost dead.
The color fades from your face
Those times we shared I can’t erase.
So young, alive, and much in love
Now angels call you from above.
I can’t let go, please stay with me
Closing my eyes, can’t bear to see
The silent angels that took you away
But in this heart, you’ll always stay.
I took for granted all we shared
Too late to show how much I cared.
I’ll never forget, or let you go
For in my heart, I loved you so.
You died tonight, but in my heart
Together forever, and never to part.
