It was a year ago this past September
On a day I will forever remember
A day so tragic it cut me like a sword
That's the day you left to live with Jesus Christ our Lord
The time has come again to remember you on that day
The Love and Grief I carry with me never goes away
I often look at pictures of you right by my side
Wondering why you did this and how I would survive
My heart still aches with misery since the day that I lost you
My mind doesn't want to admit of what happened that day
I wish is was just a dream and that it would go away
Now I know it isn't a dream but my eyes still fill with tears
I love you and I miss you each and every day of the year
As that day draws closer my body begins to shake
I only wish that you had never made this mistake
So my son I'll close for now remember what I say
For in my hearts is a mother's love that no one can take away
