He and I

Quiet and unassuming
With a hint of a smile in his eye
'Who's this beautiful girl?'
He would say to I

I rarely knew what he was thinking
He was a mystery
And familiar as well
Yet always so safe in his presence, was I

Like chalk and cheese as husband and wife
He was laid back
She full of life
But their love was strong and a great example
Of commitment, for I

Goodbye old soul, in a way I've said it
We cried our tears as your forgot
But now that you're gone, I hope you know
That there was always love, from I
