I keep close to me an album
Filled with photographs of you
I relive my treasured memories
On the days when I'm feeling blue

They say that time will heal
And I suppose that is true
But the pain never goes completely
It lurks deep inside of you

My grief sometimes overwhelms me
On the days when I'm feeling down
My mood becomes very sombre
As amidst my sorrow I begin to drown

Grief washes over you so quickly
With no warning does it give
As you struggle with your feelings
Desperately seeking for reasons to live

Your self worth becomes emaciated
You become a shadow of your former being
Outside the sun may be shining
But there are no rays that you are seeing

You try to fight all the negatives
That invade your heart and soul
As you struggle to find happiness
Which you set as your ultimate goal

So here I sit amongst my memories
As I slowly turn each page
I cling tightly to your memory
Thoughts of you I will never erase
