Forever in My Heart
Losing you is the hardest thing
I have ever had to face
You truly were my shining light
My safe and happy place
I will treasure all the memories
Of the time I spent with you
Who will fix my broken pieces now
For, to me, you were my glue
I will miss you for eternity
Every day we are apart
But always know I love you so
You'll be forever in my heart
