My empty arms

Ache for you 

Love so deep

From moments too few

 

Regrets so many 

Can't count on one hand

You were everything 

A piece of who I am

 

At every turn 

Thinking of you

Haunted by the loss 

Of one so new

 

Impossible to let go

Unable to move on

I don't know how

To accept you're gone 

 

Broken dreams

Of a life with you

Loss so permanent 

Leaves nothing to do

 

One wish to have

This nightmare erased

You with me again 

Back in my embrace
