she misses them i miss them

I am crying relentlessly

because that three year old girl misses her parents

because the  young adult that I am

misses her parents

 

You would think I would understand

those calls

calling me every week

tellling me you missed me

but I was a child

how could I understand

that you loved me and missed me

if you were not there

right next to me

 

I missed you all along

all those five years

and I hope that one day

you will tell this young adult

that you missed her all along

 

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I wish my parents could tell me they missed me.
