Nonetheless I Miss You I miss hearing your voice I miss listening to your new adventures, and of people and places you have yet to explain… I miss looking into your eyes And holding you… I miss all the time now past, we’ve not been, two... I missed it all, you and me, the way it could have been… If I had not missed reality: you really were for me… I miss that time, although it was too short to deem it could possibly be true. The fact, that it was a perfect time for me and you… If I had only listened when you said: “I miss you, come back home with me.” That was thirty-four years ago today. Nonetheless I miss you… _________________________________ |

Hi JL, good to see you posting...sad but true, all to oft, we pass by people and things that were so valuable, but at the time, we didn't recognize they were so.... Beautiful message Lee J. |

Hindsight... But you did what you felt you needed to do then... and in some way, I'm sure the other could understand. This happens so very often. And to so many. |

JL~ Thirty four years is a long, long time to stay the memories in your rhyme ... A time worth remembering is always worth remembering~ You pour such poignant ink~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |

Enjoyed the read, JL, and how often we look back and say, "If only". I decided a long time ago not to be in that same position again - the "now" counts so very much. |

Thanks all! I just ran across an old picture of the girl this is written about, it brought back the memories, and the words just popped out. JL |
