Missing One

I know that missing you
has just begun
there's years to come
and trying to sleep tonight
next to your kin
is fully lovely
as I've ever been
But I wouldn't trade my life
for someone's millions
and I know you left
for a reason
and the trees and flowers
and creeks and rocks
hold your face
with every season

I know I will continue
to try and please you
and even in some ways
to try and be you
but also my fulfillment
will be to do what I do
as you taught me to
I know that missing you
has just begun
love me family
and just sleep to all of us
