I Love You Because You'Re Gone

I Love You Because You're Gone


I loved you when you were alive,
Though our time was short.
I believe if we'd had forever,
It never would have worked.

I loved your bright side,
But your dark was wrong.
I think I only love you now,
Because you are gone.

I'm sure, though all these years have passed,
My love for you would not have last.
If you were still alive today,
I'm sure I'd loath you with dismay.

But that didn't happen,
It was meant to be this way.
Now I get to love you,
For all eternity.
