When the doctor said you were passing away
I knew then I could not ask you to stay
You had been sick up to that day
When the angels took your spirit away
You slipped away in a peaceful bliss
I felt you leave as I gave you one last kiss
I held you in my arms till they took you away
Knowing we, d be together again some day
I fell to the floor and asked him why
Why on this earth did he let you die
I knew it was selfish to question his will
But to let you stay should have been no big deal
Later that evening the guiltier I felt
Knowing the pain and suffering you had been dealt
I thanked him in prayer for easing your pain
Because had you of stayed you, d had nothing to gain
Some days are hard when I think of the past
The times we had how I wished they could last
But I knew god did what he had to do
I am at peace knowing he did it for you
No matter the length of time we are apart
You will always remain in my mind and my heart
I will cry this day when they lay you to rest
But my memories of you will always be the best
