As I sit here in this unbelievable time,

Every moment without her seems so surreal.

I wonder if it is almost my time,

I don't know what to do about the pain I feel.

Everyday is a struggle in a different way,

Trying to keep up with life takes so much.

Everyone says tomorrow will be another day,

But how to go on without her loving touch.

I know when I wake its not going to be a good day,

For I don't get to see my baby's smile.

She's gone forever with so much left I have to say,

Now it seems I'm walking an eternal mile.

The supposedly joyful holidays are closing near,

I know that Christmas this year won't be Merry,

And it isn't going to be a Happy New Year.

I try to be strong but the days without her are scary.

It's not a good time but I will try to go on,

I think and pray that is what she would want.

I will see her beauty rise tomorrow with the new dawn,

All the time wondering to myself, "How can I go on?"

I Love You Nita
