And I miss you.

How could fate have separated us? 
I think of you and miss you.
I think of your warm and inviting smile
Of the laughter that now brings tears
And I miss you.
I think of your small body wrapped in my arms
Of the hands that wish to caress your hair
And I miss you.
I think of evenings in front of a fire
Of hot chicken soup now gone cold
And I miss you.
I think of you bravely waving good bye
Of the way you walked out of my sight
And I miss you.
I think of lessons you have taught me
Of the promises I keep
And I miss you.
