No one will ever know how
much I miss you.
Not a day goes by that I
don't wish I could kiss you,
The emptiness at times is
unbearable.
My thoughts wander back
to the days of young,
watching you dress and
prepare for a night out on the town.
Your long black curls to
me were your crown.
I remember thinking how
pretty you looked,
all dressed up and ready
for dancing. You never
wore silks or satin and
lace and you never owned
a string of pearls,
But to me you were all
the world!!
What was once happy
times, now make me frown.
My memories take me back
to when you and I were one,
with thoughts and
feelings that could not be undone.
They were unknown to
others but we were one.
No longer having you
here, I feel so alone,
My connection to you is
no longer something shared,
It's as if there is no
one to care.
I miss your smile, and
your wisdom of words,
but most of all I miss
your touch.
The softness of your
hands when they rubbed my pains away,
the gentleness they gave
each and everyday.
What I wouldn't give to
have you back.
If there just was a way.
Some people say I'm wrong
to feel the way I do,
but if given the choice,
I'd just as soon be with
you.
I know I'm not really
alone in this world,
and I know the things I
should do.
But I get so lost without
my
guidance from you. You
were my rock and my strength,
there was nothing I
couldn't do.
They say one day we'll
all be together,
I can only hope that this
is true,
and I look forward to
spending
everlasting days with
you.
