And the wonder of you is what I miss
You became my world - my universe
Even thinking of how you could also
Bug the ka-ka out of me on a good day
Turned sour, in a heartbeat I’d do it again
Without a second thought: Again and again
Because the year since your passing has been
A horrible, grief-ridden, emotionally draining
Time of you-gone, dad-gone, dog-gone time
While I didn’t have a ‘cheatin’ heart’ to see me
Through the pain, just a broken one times two.
I always thought you were overly dependent on me
But now that you’re gone, I find I was dependent on you
While listening to the echos: “Carry on/carry on/carry on”...
