I used to say to myself
That I wouldn't open up to anyone else
Then you came into my life
And made everything quite alright

When the skies become as dark as the mind
Me and you would lay and watch the stars
And discuss our plans for our lifetime

We were young lovers who planned to grow old
Life is a series of decisions that forms its own mold

We never thought about a possible premature end
As your doctor told you that terminal cancer had set in
A lifetime is only as long as your last breath
Two months later your parents told me…

You finally left

I said I would always be your boy
And you said you would always be my girl….
But that was back when me and you ruled the world

Oh, how heartbreaking and poignant!

A sad outcome. Yet the soul connection is there, forever.

Love,
Margherita

I am so sorry.  I lost a young husband suddenly.  It is the end of the world at the time.  Joyce
