“Missing You Always”
You never said I’m leaving
You never said Goodbye.
You were gone before we knew it
And only God knows why.
 
In life I loved you dearly
In death I love you still.
In my heart I hold a place
That only you can fill.
 
It broke my heart to lose you
But you didn’t go alone.
A part of me went with you
The day God took you home.
