For my Princess

The home still feels empty without your presence,

There is a void, but no one talks about it

There is loneliness

But no one can sense it

There is pain; no one can feel it yet

It was different when you were there

The house felt warm and welcoming

I used to love coming back home

And hear your excitement

See you jump up and down in joy

Till I scooped you up in my arms

And told you I missed you too..

Whenever my eyes were moist, I would find you in my lap

Making sure I was alright

You never left me without making me smile

Your tilted head stance was all it took...

I miss cuddling up with you, at night

My mornings were incomplete without hugging you tight

13 years of unconditional love baby, and here I am

Talking about you

Your memories bring a smile on my face

And yet something feels heavy in my throat

Will you comfort me again if I cry...?

I feel your presence at times in the house

It’s where you breathed your last

I scooped you up in my arms

But your head didn't nestle in my shoulders

You didn’t move after that....

There was no one waiting anymore

There is a lot of pain

I wish you were here to ease it out

I miss you... I miss having you around…

I might have not said this often...

I love you princess...
