One Year

My mind refuses to  believe
It has been one year today;
Since he was riding crazy
And made you go away.

One year I've gone on without you
Struggling with all my soul and mind;
To find some kind of logic
In why you left me behind.

So many times I've wanted you
Right back here by my side;
But nothing can reverse what happened
Not even the buckets of tears I've cried.

Now day by day I remember you
You're never far from my mind;
And try as I might to win the fight
Peace in my heart I cannot find.

As another year begins without you
I search for the will to go on somehow;
My time to join you has not yet come
With God's help I will get by for now.
