It has been ten years
And I miss you as much now
As I did the day you left
Nearly every day that goes by
I still remember you
And wish I could be with you again
Just a moment to say I love you
To hear your laughter
To share some music
You taught me so much
And I feel I never told you thanks
What I wouldn’t give
To play parcheesi one more time
To sit next to you at a concert
To share a bar of chocolate
(That’s not right – we’d each have our own)
Often I wish there were guarantees
That I will see you again
Until my day comes
I can only hope
July 17th wasn’t the end
