Birthday Loss

Happy Birthday to me
Without you being here
Just doesn’t sound right
Just doesn’t seem clear

How is it true 
That Happy Birthday could be
Why would you think so
Without you here with me

It never was fancy
Elaborate or grand
But you made me feel special
With just a meal by your hand

Every year from now on
I can tell you what’s true 
My one Birthday wish
Is one more Birthday with you
