One Year This Day

written for October 1st, Annie's birthday...
 
One Year This Day
 
Another rainy day
And your life seems so far away
Now sadness comes, with tears to stay
And I am lost along the way
 
Suddenly,
Rain is falling, and I can barely see
There's a shadow, darkening me
And pain is growing by degree
 
Why you
Had to go, so swiftly, no parting words to say
I said
No words, I long for you now and yesterday
 
Birthday
Love seemed so easy, like a sunny day
Now clouds dim the sun, take away
And I can only weep and pray
