Shedding tears for Matthew,
each day I miss him more.
Recalling precious memories,
that our lives had in store.
Making every breath count,
because he'd ask me to;
wishing I could turn back time,
and find the damage to undo.
He left behind a gaping hole,
where I use to house my heart;
never had we planned a day,
that our souls would be apart.
Sometimes at night, I feel his touch,
his voice echoes through my mind;
I pray for peace to be with him,
and the ones he's left behind.
His scent still lingers,
on the clothes he wore;
and I have visions of him near,
my senses feel him all around,
how I wish that he were here.
We shared a very special bond,
like I've never had before;
Shedding tears for Matthew,
each day I miss him more.

A part of me died when I found you that day.
Your body was still, your soul sent away.
Laughter with you only hours before,
so difficult for me to find humor once more.
You laid down to sleep, and God kept your soul.
Your body apparent, it had taken its toll.
A slight smile of peace, remained on your face,
a vision that comforts me, in my weakest place.
They took you away, I couldn't stand by,
I hid from the scene, wishing it were a lie.
I saw you again, so handsome and sweet,
how could you know you'd live life incomplete...
Your pain was diminished, but mine carries on,
I won't be the same, now that you're gone.

I go through life,
it carries me.
I am in it,
rather than a part of it.
My body moves through the motions,
yet I find myself numb.
I watch the world...
In laughter, in anger.
I wonder why it all matters,
without you.

On the shore, sets an oak tree,
almost 9 feet tall.
You nurtured and pruned it,
when we came here last fall.
I remember the concern,
as you pulled off each twig,
"If someone didn't care for it,
it'd never grow big".
You were quite disappointed,
that it'd been left alone.
"Someone had to plant it,
it's a shame it's disowned."
Drawn back to this place,
where you and I spent some time,
I pulled off each branch,
like you showed me that time.
I went to sit down,
and just recollect;
as I gazed at that tree,
'tis something I'd never suspect.
An elderly couple,
came out from no where.
Their eyes on the oak tree,
each one in a stare.
They looked at the bare trunk,
and seemed quite amazed,
they checked on the roots,
and I believe the wife prayed.
He reached out his hand,
and they soon disappeared.
Could they have planted that tree,
on a sad passing one year ?
Why was I a witness?
What'd I need to know?
Were you trying to tell me,
that I should let that tree go?
