I have lost you, and I lost you fairly;
In my heart, there is no bitter cry.
I am glad that you went away as you did,
For I could not have lived the lie.
***
I shall always love you, and you will know it;
You will feel it, though I speak it not.
I shall always be true, and you will believe me,
Though I should falter, and forget.
***
I shall always be strong, and you will be tender;
You will shield me with your strength and faith.
I shall always be weak, and you will be strong,
To lift me up and bear me on.
***
I have lost you, and I lost you fairly;
The blame is mine, and yet I blame not you.
I shall still love you, and you will know it;
You will feel it, though I speak it not.
***
I shall clasp your hand in mine in the darkness,
And feel your heart beat close to mine.
I shall hear your voice in the silence,
And see your face in the dream.
***
I shall wait for you, and you will come to me,
Out of the unknown, out of the night.
I shall know you, and you will know me,
And we shall be one again.
***
I have lost you, and I lost you fairly,
But I shall find you, and I shall win you back.
I shall claim you, and you will be mine,
Forever and ever.
***
I have lost you, and I am lonely.
The world seems cold and dark and empty.
I long for your touch, your voice, your smile.
I long for the warmth of your love.
***
I have lost you, and I am afraid.
I am afraid of the future, I am afraid of being alone.
I need you to be strong for me, to guide me, to protect me.
I need you to love me.
***
I have lost you, and I am sad.
I am sad for the love we shared, the dreams we had, the plans we made.
I am sad for the time we will never have together.
I am sad for the life we will never live.
***
I have lost you, but I will never forget you.
You will always be in my heart,
in my mind, in my soul.
I will always love you.
***
I will find a way to get through this,
And I will come out stronger on the other side.
I will not let this defeat me, Because
I know that I am meant to be with you.
***
I will wait for you,
and I will never give up hope.
I know that one day we will be together again.
Until then, I will keep your memory alive in my heart.
