My Broken Heart

I really struggled today,
Sleep just would not come.

I can almost count the hours,
Since you've been gone.

Today was your Birthday,
I've fought back the tears.

It"s really hard to beleive
It's been a long three years.

I wanted to buy you something,
Nothing seemed good enough.

Everyone says it get's easier,
Still special days are rough.

I can't say when I've been this sad, 
I thought my heart was on the mend.

It broke the day left,
And it will never be the same again.

I can feel your pain, I think alot of people can relate to this type sorrow, whether it be a break up or someone dying. Well written couplets, good flow and emotion, nice work. Judy Riley
