doesn't it seem plentiful
finding reasons
of being thankful
and all the trials
chaos and pain
are but my tools
to make me strong
resilient and able

so you left earlier
than I would have thought
but that is alright
I figured,
it was destined and meant
that I'd be in better hands
as, you would, too
if we parted sooner
than you and I anticipated

for somewhere, someone
out there
was achingly waiting
longing, for the both of us
to be apart and that....
is the reality of life

I just want you to know
I'm grateful and thankful for
the opportunity of knowing you
and partook in your love

and that love will live forever in my heart
whether you're with me physically or not
because
I will always love you.

as I've always had
when I said
the first time I let you
in my life, almost three years ago.

my heart, body and soul
will always belong to you
they never left you.
