Missing You

I missed you
As I woke up in the morning and went to my little garden, I felt your absence deeply …

I missed you
When I saw the fallen leaves and petals from my Kamini flower plants, thinking, ‘If I fall like that, would you understand?’

I missed you
When I ate fruits and nuts and remembered you drinking warm water in the morning …

I missed you
When I held my book, ‘Married to Bhutan,’ but couldn’t bring myself to read it …

I missed you
While watching the film ‘A Time Called You’ as its story revolves around the lover’s rebirth …

I missed you
As you often would say to me, ‘You’re forgetful’ and here I do not know why you’ve forgotten me! …

I missed you
In that moment, feeling a deep sadness, knowing you’ve left forever, and wondering, ‘Why can’t I get him out of my mind?’

I missed you
When I remembered our laughter and heard someone call me by the name you gave me and tears fell from my eyes …

Suddenly, out of nowhere, a terrible emptiness filled my heart, and I asked myself, ‘Why does it hurt so much?’
Then I realized,
‘I miss you so much’…
As I’m left like the remains of all the things left unsaid with you …

  1. Missing our loved ones is painful indeed and your heart must be so bruised. That is why sometimes I wish I didnt feel. I miss my loved ones every day and it becomes an emotional ache that just lingers til I almost want to cry. I know I am blessed to have so many beautiful people to love.

    And I wonder if they miss me just as much. 🙂

      True, ‘emotional ache that just lingers til I almost want to cry’ ….
      The pain of missing loved ones can be overwhelming, and it leaves an emotional ache that lingers. It’s a bittersweet reminder of how blessed we are to have such wonderful people to love and miss.

      Me too often wonder the same, if they miss me as much as I miss them …

      1. Oh! You remember my broken finger fate?!
        Lovely Stephie, you’re so thoughtful for your friends. That hasn’t healed completely. I’m taking physiotherapy for that. It’ll take time. Meanwhile I can do paintings and other usual work and job, that’s a relief!

        I wish bestest weekend my dear!
        Take care and be happy and smileeee 😊❤️✨🔆

    1. Thank you Richard for your presence and words for my poem …

      I’m glad to read your comment. It touches the most crucial point – simplicity in words. That’s exactly it is! Sometimes we express the deepest feelings better in just simple words, specially when we miss our loved ones in everyday life …

      Thank you once again!
      Have a beautiful weekend …
