Why was it you?

        We shared a uniquely strong, loving and special
            relationship.
        We survived poverty, health problems and even being
           beaten and robbed to name a few hardships.
         Our love grew stronger as time passed,
         No matter what happened we never forgot how to love
          and laugh.
          So why were you taken suddenly taken from your family?
          I've never cried so many tears,
          Now alone I face my  fears.
          No more will I look into your eyes,
          Each day I find myself asking, WHY?
          Your death has devastated all who were close to you?
          With each hardship that comes my way,
           I'm finding it harder to know what to do.
           It's becoming difficult to find the words to express what
           I want to say.
           I'm lost and sometimes confused without you by myside.
           Even though it's been years since we wed,
           I'm still proud to have been your bride.
           It's so lonely in our bed.
           I still haven't found anyone to share my love and life,
           let alone anyone to be their wife.
           WHY WAS IT YOU?
           Why was I the one left behind?
           What am I to do?
           Why's love so hard to find?
           My heart cries out for you,
           I ache to feel your arms around me.
           I know I'll always love you.
           Only with you was I in love and complete.
           Why was it you that passed that night?
           Why was it you?
