how was I to know
that one day I would call you on the phone
and you would no longer answer?
you were always there
to talk with
to visit
how was I to know that your time
here was about to end?
If I could do it over
I would take time to talk each day
I would withhold words
that were not so kind and gentle
but I was self-centered
and missed times we should
have enjoyed
how I
miss you
I will
always miss you
