Until I See You Again

5:15 — Until I See You Again

For Nick — May 28, 2026 • 5:15 PM

Verse 1

Nick, I still whisper your name into the quiet,

Still turn when the hallway settles at night.

I wait for the familiar sound of your footsteps,

For your key in the door, for your voice in the light.

Your smile still rises in the rooms of my memory,

Your blue eyes still pull me under like the sea.

You carried a heart too beautiful for this world,

And loving you remade the person in me.

Pre-Chorus

I would trade every tomorrow for one more evening,

One last embrace, one last chance to say goodbye.

But if Heaven opened its gates for an angel,

I know they reached for you that night.

Chorus

At 5:15 PM, May 28th

The hands of the clock cut my life in two.

The world kept turning outside my window,

But mine stopped turning when I lost you.

You’re my husband, my forever, my home,

The steady pulse beneath this ache.

And if I could walk our whole road again,

Knowing where it would break,

I would still choose you,

Still give you every piece of my heart,

Still run toward your arms—

And love you, Nick,

Until my final breath departs.

Verse 2

Your absence lives in the smallest places:

An empty chair, a coat left on the wall,

The hush that gathers after sunset,

The space beside me when I reach out in the dark.

Sometimes your voice moves through my memory

So clearly I forget the distance for a while.

I tell you about the days you’re missing,

Then search the silence for your smile.

If love can cross the edge of this life,

I hope it finds you wherever you are—

In every tear, every prayer, every heartbeat,

In the light I carry from your heart.

Bridge

They tell me grief will soften with the seasons,

But I won’t let time erase your shape.

I’ll keep the sound of your laughter,

The warmth of your hand, the way you said my name.

I’ll carry our love through crowded mornings,

Through lonely nights and changing skies.

And when Heaven calls me home at last,

I’ll follow the light back to your eyes.

Final Chorus

At 5:15 PM, May 28th

Heaven took my husband from my side.

But no grave, no distance, no ending

Can bury the love we made in this life.

You were my husband, my soulmate, my best friend—

The one my heart will always know.

I’ll find you in every dawn that breaks,

In every star that begins to glow.

And when I finally see you again,

I’ll run to the arms I’ve dreamed of holding.

I’ll press my face against your shoulder

And whisper, “I loved you every moment.”

Outro

Until that day, my beautiful angel,

Leave a light burning somewhere above.

I’ll carry your heart beneath my ribs

And follow the signs that lead me back to your love.

May 28, 2026… 5:15 PM.

The instant the world took you away—

But never the instant my love ended.

I love you, Nicholas Henry.

Today. Tomorrow. Forever.

Until the day I die…

And then, forever after. ❤️‍🩹🕊️
