I'll Miss You

I'll Miss You

A Poem by Melinda McQueen

I’ll Miss You


My heart is sad as the tears flow,

Though I didn’t want you to,

You had to go

To God so true.

 

We had much in common, you and I,

A treasure we found in one another.

For we both “rolled” our way through life

In all its wonder.

 

Sharing our hopes and dreams,

We envisioned so much

Even though we knew they would never come to be.
My heart you touched.

 

You are now free…

Free to soar high.

Your memory I’ll keep

In my heart’s eye.

 

May you be at peace

In all of God’s truth.

Know that I love you greatly

And I’ll miss you.

 

In Loving Memory of

   Michael Prince

Losing a loved one
The feeling of being that close
It sort of never leaves
and somehow now you love that person more

Thank you for reading and leaving your review.
Wonderfully written. Full of emotion and caring for the one you have lost. Your words play true to your heart and the agony you bear is felt a thousand times over.
