29 days,
since you made your escape
closed the door to this life,
and just faded away
29 days,
I still dial your phone
it's hard to believe
that you are really gone
29 days,
a few days, shy of a month
92 years,
wasn't nearly enough
29 days,
and I know you're at peace
free from life's trials
and your souls been released
29 days,
without you calling me boo
finding out how hard
life is, without you
29 days,
with a lifetime of love
memories to remind me
just how lucky I was
29 days,
and I just want to say
I will never stop loving you
*
I will love you, always
