Juan

You were patient and so honest, faithful to the end

More than just my husband, Juan, you were my best friend

You taught me how to speak in Spanish, rolling every word

The most beautiful expressions that my ears had ever heard

Always giving what you had, always stepping up to help

You loved me with a tenderness I’d never truly felt.

You are my heart, my soul, my everything

The deepest joy that life could ever bring

You meant the whole wide world to me, my gentle guide

I only wish that you were still here by my side.

I miss the silly jokes we shared to make each other smile

Counting down to both our birthdays, laughing all the while

Sitting at the movies, sharing moments in the dark

Every simple memory left a footprint on my heart

You were caring, you were loving, pure in every way

I carry all the light you gave to me through every day.

You are my heart, my soul, my everything

The deepest joy that life could ever bring

You meant the whole wide world to me, my gentle guide

I only wish that you were still here by my side.

I would have given anything to keep you in the light

To hold you close and pull you from the shadows of the night

I’m sorry that I couldn't save you, sorry you are gone

But the love we built together is what keeps me holding on.

'Cause you're my heart, my soul, my everything

The deepest joy that life could ever bring

You meant the whole wide world to me, my best friend till the end

I will love you, Juan, until we meet again.
