Though she is gone
She’s not forgotten
Dearly departed
But deep in my heart
She’s gone but
Left her love
Plans derailed
At times I feel like I failed
To be present
With the gift of her love
Now she shares her love
From so far above
A partnership disbanded
Parenting single-handed
Sadness in separation
Madness with desperation
She’s gone
But left her love
A shell of a man
Missing a helluva woman
Daunted by the empty space
Haunted by her beautiful face
She’s gone
But left her love
We built a family
We built a business
I lost that family
I battle for that business
She’s gone
But left her love
Helplessness setting in
Hard to know what to begin
Can all be ended so abruptly
Tears running uncontrollably
She’s gone
But left her love
