When you Miss what you Love

Hey you guys <3 You know, I've written poetry since I've been little and it's become quite a passion of mine.. I've just never really gone public about it... I don't have time to think of a full blown poem right now, but I can give you a little preview c: I feel that poetry is my way to express my inner feelings and emotions and transcend them into words and rhythm ... I grab the flow of my brain and flow it with pencil and paper, or in the case, the keyboard... but either way, it's my way to express myself.. and I hope you guys even faintly enjoy it c:

We've all had things in this world we love,
Items or people, we've always thought they were sent from above.
Yet, did we ever realize how much they were truly worth?
Did we realize that they meant more than everything on this Earth?
Many of us, unfortunately don't,
and the majority of us won't,
until we lose what meant the world to us.
We will, for the rest of our lives, pine for what was.

What happened to the joy we used to feel?
Why does it suddenly feel so surreal?
Where did the smiles that once clothed my face
disappear to, perhaps the dark depths of space?
Why couldn't I see
What you meant to me...
Why was I so foolish to have glanced over you
and seen how much your value was true..
But now that you're gone,
I stay up praying till dawn..
That maybe, just maybe, one day you'll come back,
And my love for you shall never ever lack..
Yet the cold harsh truth is that you will never be by my side again,
You were in the past, but I didn't realize your worth then.
I regret every moment
that loving you wasn't spent,
and now, now I shall for eternity, sit here and repent.
