I thank God for every day I had with you

For every moment we shared together

I thank God for all the jokes- and fights, too

All the time we spent with each other

I thank God for good days and bad

For dog-walking and frustrated tears

I thank God for the joy we once had

The catching up of missed-out-on years

I don't thank God that you're locked away

And sometimes, yes, I cry

But I know God gave us those better days

Though sometimes I wonder why

I don't thank God for the drastic change

That suddenly happened in our lives

But God has a reason for everything

Just sometimes He chooses to hide

I thank God for all the time we spent

I'm sure you do, too

Right now you may not be here

But I thank God that I met you
