I miss you...
She asked me for a cold drink
I ran to the kitchen to fetch her one
I was back in no time only to find her gone…lost forever…
The last thing she asked me for… I couldn’t get it to her in time…
I will always miss her smile. Smile, when she was in pain. Smile, when she saw me…
Smile…smile…smile…that’s all I remember…
I was too young to understand
But could feel the loss – of her smile!
The phone rang
He told me he had a surprise for me.
I was excited, promised I’ll see him over the weekend.
The phone rang again…I rushed to answer, ask about the surprise
It wasn’t him…he would never call again…was he angry with me?
I was hurt; I knew I would miss him and the surprise I never got
I forgot to tell him how much I loved him;
Will he know how much I love him?
She was expecting.
I was excited. A new born was coming!
He came into this world with complications. The tiniest little thing I had ever seen.
I couldn’t touch him.
He needed to rest.
He went off to sleep, never to open his eyes…
I will miss what we could have had…the bond that was broken too early…
I got the news… He’s not well
I wonder if I’ll see him again, I really want to but can I face another loss?
I have to tell him how much I care, how much he means to me, how much I’ll miss him…
I don’t want this to end…
