It's Been One Year

A simple poem as we mark one year since your passing. Mom left her earthly body August 28, 2012 and we said goodbye August 30, 2012.  Mom, we love and miss you  so much.

I can't believe it's been one year.
One year ago today.
One year of missing you,
of wishing you could have stayed.
The days turns into weeks, the weeks turn into years.
I'm learning to go on without you,
but my pillow knows my tears.
Oh how I long to see your face again,
to spend just one more day.
I treasure the time we had more than words alone can say.
