PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

The day I lost you, was the day I lost myself.
My mother couldn't take care of me, so you and grandma helped.
Made sure I had breakfast and clothes.
Always made sure I wasn't sick with a runny nose.

I remember looking out the window waiting for my tortilla with butter.
I will love you forever like no other.

You have no idea how much I miss you.
I never really got to say goodbye and kiss you.

If there's a heaven or not I know you're still there.
You're all around me: in my mind, my heart, and in the air.

I still cry at times because you are gone.
I miss you, Papa Juan.
