One Year Alone Without You



My man left a year ago today,

You;ve  been so long away

I didn’t think I could dot it

But I’ve made it all the way.


My Ormie is gone, but not in spirit

He is with me all the way.

Your body is gone but not the rest

You are with me every day.


I remember so many things

Your smile and your  gentle ways

I could never have had a better man

Or a more perfect husband in every way.


I remember  you iin so many ways

And wish every day you were here

You  left a big hole in my life, you know,

And I have shed many a tear.


But I knew you  would expect me

To go ahead with my life in style

You/d  be proud of me today, I’m sure

How I’ve lived on without you this while.


I have missed you every day you;'e been  gone

I will never forget my great man

The father of my kids, and my hero

This husband of mine, my man.


Some told me to fins someone new

But nobody can take your place,

I will always remember my l man

I will never forget your  sweet face.

You were my world and will always be,

No matter how old I might get,

You are with me forever, not really gone,

Ad I will have no regrets.
