My love, I'm playing our song today, the song that made us cry. I'm remembering when we were together. We had something special, you and I.
Now I'm trying so hard to not feel this pain that is creeping into my heart. I'm trying with all of my might to stop these tears. This pain is much stronger than I could ever be.
You had my heart, now there is nothing left to give. You left it broken there at my feet. There is nothing left but sadness over losing you.
My tears run freely now, there is nothing that I can do to stop them. My mind races a million times faster. It's like a movie being played in my head. Your face is all that I see. My love, why did you have to leave?
You're all that I can think about since I received the heartbreaking news. My love has gone, and will never be returning to me.
How could this be, when I just talked to you? How could this have happened? Why did God choose to take you home so soon? I have so many unanswered questions. My heart truly can't take anymore.
I need to see you again, and touch your face. I need to hear your voice again, whispering sweet nothings. I need your arms around me, just one more time.
Oh god, I miss you so much. I know that all of my begging and pleading won't bring you back to me.
Instead of pleading, my love, I'm listening to our song Just once more to remember.

When we lose those that are so close to us, when the love they use to give so freely has been taken way what is left but a broken heart and some bittersweet memories.
Hold his image close, feel his presence in your every breath when that moment of melancholy strikes.
