Just One More Day

Just One More Day It's been a whole year now since you went away. They say it gets easier, maybe, some day. So many things we still needed to say. If I could see you, just one more day. I'd beg of you, "Why did you take your own life?" "Have you any idea of my sadness and strife?" Would there be anything you'd like to say? If I could see you, just one more day? So many nights my mind drifts in wonder. I lie there awake, head pounding like thunder. I realize there wasn't much I could do. Would you've still done the same if I'd said I loved you? Or would I be sitting here still hurt this way? So cold to the comforting words people say. Peace is the one thing that's not in my mind. How many years will it take me to find? Could I have saved you from dying that day? Could my fragile mind cope with the words you would say? Your shackles were gone when you set yourself free. Mine have been on since you passed them to me. With just a few answers I might find my way. If I could see you, just one more day. 12-07-2015
