On a dark, rainy day,
My soulmate passed away,
I succumbed to despair,
As my life fell away,
Days passed, months went by,
Time healed the wounds day by day,
Until one day I understood:
Leaving a scar, the pain had melted away,
And a realization dawned on me that,
In life, darkness came and went,
But a sliver of hope always remained,
Hanging on to it, you could carry on,
Until God took your final breath.
