The Years I Missed
Most of your life I may have missed
But I still remember when we first kissed
The first couple years went really well
We we're on top of the world and all could tell
I would fish while you were fast asleep
Now all we have are those few memories to keep
My heart breaks and my eyes quickly swell
Because instead of you I chose a life of living hell
I think of you often every single day
Wondering if our paths will some time go the same way
We haven't talked or e-mailed in so long
The pain of it all is really heavy and way to strong
Knowing that for me it's more then to late
What to do next I think about and wait
Realizing you owe nothing at all to me
I hope , pray, and live that one day again you I will see
Yet as my life comes closer to an end
You are just getting ready for yours to begin
Love for you I always have felt
At the sight of somethings I would simply melt
Didn't take long and I couldn't live without a little crutch
But I let control my life so very much
For big losses there are only a few
That could only be grandpa and all the years lost from you
Maybe my approach will never get through
Still I sit here tear running down my cheek
Because I am a new person no longer weak
Now I ramble on with so much to say
But most of all I Love and Miss you every single day!
The tears I fight and don't want anyone to see
This pain I can not blame on anyone but me!
