Now That You're Gone

If only I knew we had an expiration date
I would have held you longer
I would have savored every kiss
I would have done all the things I surely will miss

I know these words don’t mean much
But I wish that I could have saved you
I mean… I wish I could have saved us
I wish I knew how

People say that things happen for a reason
And I hope that this is true
I hope that there is God up there that has better plans for you

I hope that when you read this that you know
How much I truly loved you
I hope that you know that I gave it all up for you

But now that you’re gone it’s too late
If only I had the power to change our fate

A Dying Love Story

She held him softly in a waltz pose 

and whispered do you remember our first dance?

Flashes of their wedding day appeared in their minds,

 but she remembered their actual first dance

or maybe somewhere down their life together

 they had failed each other.

Maybe it was to easy, 

maybe they thought that their love could never be moved.

in theirs hearts be stronger than

 the love they should've shared today.

She closed her eyes and clinged to his body,

 the body that had protected,

 loved and cared for her for several years

 hoping that she could fly back to the start,

 she knows what she could've done differently.
