One year without you...

One year has gone by.
Life goes on.
But it will never be the same again.
There is an empty space where he is supposed to be.

I think of him every day and still ask
Why did he have to go?
Why did God give him to me and then take him away?
These are the many questions that have no answers.

Everything reminds me of him. Everything.
His family, his friends and
even those he was not so fond of.
At work, at home,
the places we used to go to, the walks we used to take.
Everything reminds me of him.

I tell myself at least I had a few good years with him.
But even that is no consolation.

Does the pain go away
No.
It becomes part of you.
And life goes on.
But it will never be the same again without him.

~In my heart always~
