Tears stream down my face
As I think of what will never be
For when you died and left me behind
To my heart, you stole the key
Today I saw you one last time
I knelt beside your head
I'd wished I'd told you of my love
Before cancer took you instead
If only you could've seen it all
In your hand was placed a rose
Your face was sheer perfection
Frozen in its permanent pose
I'll never forget your burial
As you sank beneath the grass
My heart became unfixable
Destroyed, like shattered glass
As I think of what will never be
For when you died and left me behind
To my heart, you stole the key
Today I saw you one last time
I knelt beside your head
I'd wished I'd told you of my love
Before cancer took you instead
If only you could've seen it all
In your hand was placed a rose
Your face was sheer perfection
Frozen in its permanent pose
I'll never forget your burial
As you sank beneath the grass
My heart became unfixable
Destroyed, like shattered glass
