I Miss You

Red and swollen up eye filled with tears

Since we parted, it’s been years

I still can’t believe that you've gone away

As i am still left in this feeling of dismay

I could've stopped you from leaving

I did not know that i would end up grieving

I thought you would be back soon

And i waited for you each afternoon

But you didn't come

Waiting for you had become tiresome

I went out in the cold to look for you

So i asked everyone but none had a clue

I showed them your picture

But to my question, no one could answer

I looked around all the places you've been

But there weren’t any traces of you that anyone had seen

Some months later in an unheard place

A young boy said he had seen your face

You were there to get me a souvenir

A tribal necklace, that was so rare

But who knew that the place would be struck by flood

That left tears and blood

You were gone and you would never come back

And to accept this fact was really hard

All that is left with me is your ashes

And the memories of the good time we spent
