I threw away your number-
And trashed your pictures, too.
I did my best to purge myself,
Of every thought of you...

I said that it was foolish-
For a man to feel this way.
But I keep hoping for an e-mail
Each and every day.

I think about your voice at night
And toss and wonder, "Why?"
A man who's suffered as I have-
Still finds the tears to cry...

I've always heard a cowboy-
Should never shed a tear...
But all my life I've seen them,
Sitting, crying in their beer...

What lies in the future?
I really cannot say...
But I know I'll face it, missing her,
Each and every day.

Oh my friend - my heart aches for you.  She will always be in your mind and in your heart, and late at night in your tears.  Being deeply in love with someone is wonderful, but when they are gone is very traumatic.  Big hugs to you and in time, a peaceful and brighter day.
