It's time,
to say goodbye.
I'm so upset,
my mouth has gone dry.

Slowly I bend over,
and give you a kiss.
your blue eyes filled with sadness,
the time I spent together I will miss.

When I pull away,
with this pain in my heart.
I don't want you to leave me,
I don't want to be apart.

Sadly I know,
this goodbye means forever,
we have so many memories,
that I will always remember.

The drive back home,
was the saddest I ever had.
I cried so hard,
I felt so bad.

I prayed that God,
would let you stay.
But eventually He took you,
far away.

It's all for the best,
I learned to face.
you are free from pain,
and in a better place.

your memory is alive,
to this day.
I love you so much Boppie
even though your far away.

I know you look down on me,
and still love me with all your heart,
a bond so strong,
it will never break apart.

Please remember me,
and all the good times.
For I love you so much,
I put it in rhyme.
Elizabeth Colon & Justin Bizeau
