BY BENJAMIN YELTON

If I could just see you again…

I would tell you how much I loved you, and how I missed you so,

how I wish that you were here, to watch our legacy grow.

Before I could say goodbye, you were out of sight;

all that’s left is the pain from that dreadful night.

I lost my love, my partner, and my friend;

these regrets and flashbacks seem to never end.

If I could just see you again…

I would tell you that I missed you, that I’m lost without you;

these feelings that I feel, I wish they were not true.

I lost my friend on that cold, dark night,

but now I am sober, and I can see the light.

You never really left me, I can feel you in my heart;

the love that you gave me, I’ll never let it part.

If I could have one last word, I’d make this promise to you:

My dearest one, I will always love you.

Our son will always know how much his mother was loved,

that she will always be there for him, watching from above,

If I could just see you again…

I would hold you tight, and never let you go

because losing you is a pain that I don’t want to know.

So this is it, my love, this is the end,

a wishful poem for you, sent from Ben.
