Missing You Poem by Reagan A. Latumbo

You don't know how happy I am,
When I first saw you.
You cradled me in your arms,
And said the words I love you.

The day I took my first walk,
I saw the happiness in your face,
You guided me how to walk,
And caught me everytime I fell.

You never stop caring,
You never stop watching me,
You never stop hugging me,
We are so close and never ever leave me.

But those memories shuttered suddenly.
You've changed and leave me hanging so badly.
I don't know why all of a sudden,
I felt something in your hand, that burden is what you carried then.

I miss our laughter,
I miss our closeness,
I miss your concern,
I miss every inch of your love, of being you to me.

I don't know how to ease your pain,
I don't know how to make you smile,
I don't know how to take away your sorrow,
What I only know is to hug you with all my might.

Years, and years, and years, gone so fast,
If I can remember our closeness totally back,
But a sudden disappointment,
Was just a blast!

You died without my loving arms,
You died without seeing me,
You died without telling me that you missed me
And what is more painful?

You died without saying the words, "I love you to me"!

I was shocked at the news,
I burst out into tears,
I cried for you every night,
Even in my dreams, I want to hold you tight!

I am sorry I was not there,
I am sorry you missed me,
I am sorry you have't seen me,
I am sorry because you never stopped loving me.

It is five years without your existence,
It is five years without your hugs and kisses,
It is five years of losing you,
It is five years of missing you!
