My wife, my partner in life, I always thought we would be in each other's strife. That you would be my shield, and I'd be your sword, Together, we'd face everything, we wouldn't be ignored.

I trusted you with my life, my soul, I never thought our love would grow cold. I thought we'd be a team, untouchable, Our bond unbreakable, our love undeniable.

But now here I stand, alone and bereft, The shield I thought I had, no longer left. I'm vulnerable, unprotected, exposed, And yet, the memories of our love still pose.

I miss the comfort of your embrace, The look of love, the light on your face. I still think of you, day and night, Wishing that together, we'd make things right.

But until then, I'll hold on to the dream, That you and I, still make a team. That we can still be each other's sword and shield, And in each other's love, be truly healed.
