Because He's Not Here
Where is the wonderful man I married?
The one I loved
The one I cherished
Because he’s not here!
Where is the man who was
Filled with life
Filled with desire
Filled with passion
Because he’s not here!
My heart aches with sorrow
My heart aches with pain
Because he’s not here!
I miss my husband
I miss my lover
I miss my friend
I miss my companion
Because he’s not here!
Things change, people change
But my heart is still the same
All this
Because he’s not here
I started this back in 2003 but just found it and finished it. He's not here because I left when he started using drugs again.
