i will never feel your hand on the small of my back,
or hear you breathing softly in an afternoon nap.
i will never hold your hand while you drive me home,
or kiss you goodbye as the moon begins to show.
i will miss out on your achievements and victories,
someone else will wipe your tears when you scrape your knees.
i will never get to watch you play guitar in person,
or snuggle and watch LORD OF THE RINGS: THE EXTENDED VERSION!
i will be absent at your birthday parties, decline your invitations,
but please understand i loved you without any hesitation.
