I knew when I first saw you all those many years ago
Found a place to rest my bones
Waiting to be just discovered, and I know I've found my place
When I'm with you, I am home
Quiet contemplation in the here and in the now
Only question was the when
I thought we had a couple or a few more years, at least
But we made it just past ten
You protect me in the winter, frigid, cold it is outside
Keep me safe and keep me warm
You've seen me at my best and you have seen the ugly worst
Through the calms and through the storms.
I wish you'd know I'll miss you when I finally do depart
Love you now as much as then
Planned to only be here with you 'till my elder dying years
But we won't make another ten
While I'm here
Try to force a smile
I am here now
For a little while
When I'm looking through the pictures
I will try; supress the loss
And get through, as I always do
Hasn't always been that easy, and sometimes you piss me off
Could there be another way
I am tying to take care of all my god damned business now
And there's nothing more to say
At least I know to find you and I may some day return
And remember what had been
I would be with you forever, and a million years or more
But we won't make another ten
