Shandée - Eternal Love

Years of wisdom,

A pure heart,

Strong love,

Shared with those you knew.

It was pleasant to have you,

Talking with you was entertaining.

You knew how to make me laugh,

And how to stop my tears.

You had a magical touch,

Making my life easier,

Grounding me when needed,

Offering sage advice.

You were the person

I used to run to,

When my life was crumbling,

You knew how to put me back, piece by piece.

You are gone,

But everything you did remains here,

And my heart will always remember,

That your love was meant to stay.

You are my family,

My friend,

My confidant,

Life was too short, and I miss you.

I know we all have to leave one day,

But I was not ready for this day to come.

I know you are in a better place,

But there is no better place for you than my heart.

God needed you, I know,

But God also knows that I needed you more.

I was not ready to say goodbye,

I am still not ready to understand that you are gone.

I want you to know that I love you,

And I will always love you.

I miss you,

And I will always miss having you with me.

…Until we meet again.

Shandée - Beautiful Memory

We were meant to be together.

Forever was not enough.

You asked me questions

That I could not respond to.

Now I know what you wanted to know.

Too little, too late

To regret,

To feel the blues.

You were clear

When you asked me

If I wanted to be with you,

But I thought you were not serious.

I want to turn back time

And go to the exact moment

Where you were in front of me

And touch your mouth with a kiss.

But now you are not real,

Just a memory floating in my head,

Just someone who is haunting me every single day.

You are a beautiful memory that I refuse to forget.
