A picture of you sits beside my bed

While I remember all the words that you said

Thoughts of you spin around in my head

There’s a hunger inside me that can’t be fed.


It’s so hard to accept that you are gone

I thought without you I’d still be strong

Yet all my waking hours it’s for you that I long

I can only get through today, can’t think beyond.


Perhaps I had come to need you too much

Maybe I had become too used to your touch

Did I take for granted all that we shared?

Did I make you feel that I never cared?


Why was I unable to see the signs?

How could I have been so blind?

Why can I see it now that it’s all behind?

If only I could cause time to rewind!


A big lesson learned, I know it’s true

Too late I learned  what not to do

But right now I don’t know how to get through

When all that I have is a memory of you.
