I had eight years with you.

It's not nearly long enough, but its what you gave me.

And I wouldn't trade it for anything.

I try to live in those memories.

The way you talked.

Smiled.

Thought.

Whispered.

Sung.

Yelled.

Screamed.

Walked.

Acted.

Smelled.

Glared.

I had eight years with you.

It's not nearly long enough, but it's what you gave me.

And I wouldn't trade it for anything.

But I am selfish.

I wanted more than eight years.

I wanted forever.

You didn't.

You wanted to be gone.

You wanted me to be gone.

You wanted all of us to be gone.

I had eight years with you.

It's not nearly long enough, but it's what you gave me.

And I wouldn't trade it for anything.

Would you?
