So here it is,

The day has approached us again,

January the 8th,

The day the kids went back,

Back to school,

The day we thought,

We could escape,

Just for a little while,

But this time,

Last year,

Trouble struck,

As you lay there,

Not breathing,

I screamed,

I didn't know what to do,

I grabbed the phone,

Dialled 911,

They said you would be fine,

So that's what I went on,

Later into the night,

You were gone,

Gone with the angels,

I cried for weeks,

I didn't want to let go,

Our memories,

All I had left,

Left of someone,

Who was my world,

My life,

My everything.
