"I'd like to say I don't feel any sadness,
I'd like to say I don't feel alone,
I'd like to say I see past the darkness,
But a spark of light remains unshown."

"I'd like to say I still remember your face,
I'd like to say I don't feel pain anymore,
I'd like to say I can still hear your voice,
But the lack of the past makes me sore."

"I'd like to say I've come to terms with it all,
I'd like to say I look at your picture with a smile,
I'd like to say your name doesn't make me bawl,
But it still happens every time."

"Nevertheless, we had a good run,
Partners through thin and thick,
Lives full of friends, love and fun,
Till we meet again, Slick."

"I-" she sniffed, "I m-miss you so much."
