I tried for hours to write about how much I miss you



But oceans were too shallow


Suns were too dull


Rhymes were too simple


And words meant nothing.








(So please accept blank verses that


I wrote with emotions,


And excuse my strong language.)

&ldquo;Be soft. Do not let the world make you hard. Do not let pain make you hate. Do not let the bitterness steal your sweetness. Take pride that even though the rest of the world may disagree, you still believe it to be a beautiful place.&rdquo;<br /> ― Kurt Vonnegut
