It has been over a year,
Nothing has been the same around here,
I used to be so strong and full of pride,
so much of me I would not show, because it was easy to hide.
But the tears fall so freely from my face,
But I don't try to stop them,
even though I think they are a waste.
I hate days like today, I miss you so much.
I long for your smile, for your soft sweet touch.
God knows I have asked him a thousand times,
why he took you away.
And why the memories, that used to be so clear,
start to fade away.
So I thought I would go see you today,
To help ease some of the pain away.
There was so much I needed to tell you, But I did not know what to tell you.
So I just placed a yellow rose on your grave and walked away.
I will go home and cry because,
I can't cry in front you you.
I won't let you see how much I miss you,
So I whisper "I love you" and walk away,
Because there is nothing else to say.
