Missing You

I REMEMBER WHEN WE USE TO SIT IN OUR DINING ROOM AFTER DINNER JUST TALKING ABOUT ANY AND EVERYTHING I REMEMBER WHEN WE USE TO TAKE WALKS AROUND OUR BLOCK EVERY SATURDAY MORNING AT THAT TIME I WAS SO HAPPY TO HAVE YOU IN MY LIFE AND I WASN'T THAT THANKFUL UNTIL YOU WAS GONE EVERYONE KEPT TELLING ME YOU WOULDN'T WANT TO SEE ME SO SAD AND MOURNFUL SO I SUCKED UP ALL THE TEARS AND CARRIED AROUND A LOAD OF GUILT FOR THE NEXT 15 YEARS NOW I AM A CHANGED PERSON BECAUSE I LEARNED TO FORGIVE MYSELF THE DAY I WON'T FORGET WAS TWO DAYS AFTER YOUR DEATH WHEN I WENT TO YOUR GRAVE I FELT YOUR PRESENCE THERE AND I SMELLED YOUR FAVORITE PERFUME AROUND ME I TURNED AROUND AND SAW A LITTLE GIRL THAT LOOKED LIKE YOU THROUGH A PUDDLE OF WATER UPON THE GRASS BUT IT TOOK ME A SECOND TO REALIZE THAT THE GIRL WAS ME
