I miss you for now you are gone and I cannot see your face smiling at me or touch your hand. I miss you but, you are with me in so many ways as when I smile at others it is because you taught me to smile more freely. You allowed me to love you and because of this I am no longer apprehensive of loving and accepting people into my personal realm. Because of you I have learnt how to compromise, to listen and to share more willingly. I miss you but you walk with me now and forever in the growth that happened because of your involvement in my life.
