I Miss You...

The only human being that as for now, at least I can say is my sole best friend, is from KY, and he is currently married, but he was one of the messengers God sent my way, and through him I believed.

I miss you, pure and simple.

I miss the tone of your voice,

your laugh and sarcasm.

I miss the anticipation of waiting

on you to call, as I knew, you would 

make time, just for me.

Do you remember, how we met?

Through the internet. And the lie,

I told, in case you asked...

Yet you knew even before I confessed,

that I had lied to you, and even after that

you never stopped being a friend.

I miss your solid words,

of Love , Faith and God.

I miss, your subtle tone,

when sharing of His grace.

I miss how you would exclaim,

You are worthy of His Love and His forgiveness.

Do you remember all the times, I would become bitter,

yet you never quit or stopped talking until

your mission was complete.

I miss your soft tone, whenever you would

let me cry, over the phone, and never say a

word, until I could cry no more.

I miss how you would always act

as if we were sitting face to face

on a couch, each time we were on the phone.

Do you remember the time, you were making

your dinner, and never once did you

tell me to leave you be?

I miss knowing that whenever I was down

or angry, I could reach you,

without a moments notice, and you never 

turned me away.

I miss your coaching in regards to guys and gals,

and how to get a date, and what to never say

or do.

I miss the times, you would scold me,

in a very deep, voice, full of anger, but never

once did you complain.

I miss how whenever I was facing 

something dire, at times, you would

know to check up on me.

Do you remember the time, you let me talk and 

you never once said a word, and it took me 

an hour or more to say what I wanted to say, and

you still never got tired or hung up on me.

I miss that even if by accident the line would go dead,

you would never hesitate to call right back

and say, I am sorry.

I miss you dearly, but I remain grateful,

for indeed you lead me right and true

into the arms of my Saviour, and you 

never stopped loving me neither,

as a friend.

You were my mentor, friend, and brother.

At times you would act as a father, in order to 

set my path straight.

You were everything I needed when darkness was 

trying to consume me, and you lead me straight into

the light.

I thank you deeply for all you did, and will never stop

praying for you and your family, nor stop loving as well.

I hope the person this was meant for received it. Beautifully written.

[Maria]

Thanks, truly appreciate that. And in a way, I did send him a letter a few years back, and it made him cry out of sentiment, and told me he would keep it safe, and that if we ever got to meet face to face, he would show it to me.

This is really touching, painful but mostly uplifting.
I am glad that in any form, you have that person in your life.
