I wrote this poem for my dad, after he died on 12-24-00. I miss him so very much, even now.
Missing You
you left us so quickly
I thought you could never die.
my guilt is as strong as my pain.
I should have been there
to say goodbye.
I miss you
I'll miss you forever.
They say it gets easier
I don't see how.
My pain grows every day
the pain from
missing you.
I read this poem thinking of "waiting for you". It seems that the path of mourning is very difficult for you at this moment. Have you written a
longer piece to analyze your feelings?
I have a poem entitled "Ignition". It is about suppressed memories around the loss of a child. It would be interesting to have your opinion.
I also think, on a more personal level, that those who loved us deserve, just like we do, to see us happy and strong.
