Marguerite
I know I should not ask why
God chose you instead of me to die
I shared your suffering and great pain
As I watched you did not complain
Holding your dying hand I did vow
I would love you forever as I do now
I have shed tears to cause a tide
Now my eyes are like the desert dry
I have tried new romance and love
But can only think of you above
No one will ever take your place
Everywhere I see your lovely face
The sun no longer shines as bright
You were my only ray of light
Each day seems forever and slow
Life is completely empty without you
In difficult times you were there
Ready and willing to share and care
You were my friend lover and wife
Accepted all difficulties in our life
I can still see you walking down the aisle
An image of beauty with a great smile
Hand and hand we walked together
Vowed to love each other forever
Each day I love you more and more
Sorry that I didn’t tell you that before
Sometimes during life we seem to forget
To express our feelings and later regret
Time will only tell when
We will be together again
Until then my love I say adieu
I will always love you and be true
