First Christmas Without You by Canadian Poet Alice C. Bateman

<>

<> We survived this first Christmas without you
The days pass
The wheels turn
Life goes on

But I wonder when
It will get easier
When we'll have to accept
That you're gone

Your death a mistake
That is so hard to take
For the family left here
Who still love you

Your death was a shock
And it makes us take stock
Of all that's left here now
Without you

We're lead to believe
That we shouldn't grieve
But how can we not
When we love you
