You Were My Hardest Goodbye
over time before my adoring eyes
much like a rose past its prime
i saw you wither away
i didn’t think that love could
but it grew day by day
and how sweet its perfume
you gave me the gift of intimacy
opening your heart to the nth degree
your vulnerability most endearing
a closeness i’d always in awe treasure
you were the love of my life
i never thought i'd ever have to say goodbye
