My Poem for Leon

You  never know what you have until you no longer have it. When you're selfishness takes over, you're blinded from other's pain and only see yourself and then you must live with your mistakes.

I Miss You
I'll never hear his voice and I'll never see his smile
I'll never say I'm sorry and the pain will stay awhile
To walk a lonely road with such a heavy heart,
I feel all this pain, now we're just so far apart.
If I could only see you and tell you what I need,
Life would be so much better and so much more at ease.
When you said you loved me then, I turned and walked away
I left you standing there and there was so much left to say.
But I just wouldn't listen, when you're young you think you're right,
And I just had to hurt you and start another fight.
And you know I am so sorry, I never told you what I felt,
All this love inside I've held for no one else.
Only you I give it to so far from me, my dad,
When no one else was there you came and took my hand.
Why was I so blind? So young and so naive,
I never wanted THIS, so why did you have to leave?
I'm sorry for your pain, for the life you tried to clutch,
Now here I am without you, missing you so much.
