I should thank you for departing
And the pain caused way back then
I know now that I am starting
Learning to live my life again
But in memory of what we shared
And all the things we’ve lost
The times gone by when we both cared
Before we all of us paid the cost
I set aside a bit of every day
To quietly sit and reminisce
Often I can’t hold the tears at bay
For I mostly remember bliss
The first three hours of time with you
I felt I’d known you my whole life
I knew right then we’d be one not two
There was a feeling you’d be my wife
I remember only the times of good
Can’t seem to find the bad
It makes me wish that I understood
Why you left me and made me sad
Well memories they go and come
And some friendships do as well
The shame is that when we were done
Our friendship went to hell
Good bye to you who I held dear
Your friendship forever missed
It’s harder now to find a tear
For my love that I once kissed
