in the darkness left by death
as tears flow with sobbing breath
bereft and broke
a light shines through
because once
I was loved by you
your love
our life
was Everest
a dream fulfilled
a noble quest
a memory that guides me true
Because once
I was loved by you
now
standing on my road
alone
no idea where I’ll find home
but my heart smiles
my strength renewed
Because once
I was loved
by you
