Time heals nothing........

As that dreadful day gets nearer,
This haze I'm in gets no clearer.
The pain I feel still remains,
The emptiness is still the same.
I packed up some of your things,
But my heart still hurts, the wound still stings.
I cried and cried to pack your things away,
So angry and hurt that you couldn't stay!
Your little clothes still have your scent,
A lifetime together for us was not meant.
I know through us your spirit will live,
To you both my last breath I would give.
This time last year I held you tight,
In my arms you slept all night.
Today you are gone away in heaven,
I'm left missing you twenty-four seven.
"You'll have more" is what they say,
"In time you'll be ok".
What they don't know is that's not true,
Even with him here I will always miss you!
Nothing can ever change that feeling, 
There is no moving on from this pain there is no healing.
I try to put on a brave face,
I look for strength but there is no trace.
I find myself breaking more and more,
To leave the darkness there is no door.
I dream of you now quite often,
I sit and think of what could've been.
What I've learned is even after a year already,
Time heals absolutely nothing......
