"Missing You Always" You never said I'm leaving, you never said Goodbye. You were gone before we knew it and only God knows why. In life I loved you dearly, in death I love you still. In my heart I hold a place, that only you can fill. It broke our heart to lose you, but you didn't go alone. A part of us went with you, the day God took you home.
