From thee, the pleasure of the fleeting year!

What old December's bareness everywhere!

Without you I find myself
Wanting to be lost again.

Taken the stars from the night and the sun
From the day!
Gone, and a cloud in my heart.

When stars illume the sky,
I gaze upon each orb of light,
And wish that thou wert by.

Days of absence, sad and dreary,
Clothed in sorrow's dark array, -
Days of absence, I am weary;
She I love is far away.

who do you miss?
Why?






I miss my dad.

he died in 2001....i STILL pick up the phone to call him anytime something happens.

I called him when the attacks on the world trade center happened.......even though he passed the month before....
tell who you miss and why.

i miss my niece emmiline.

even though we live near eachother, i dont have the chance to see her enough and shes growing up too fast and im missing out 


-good idea.

this is a good idea.

I miss my mom most of the time. I'm with her right now but we live 100 miles apart. We used to see each other every day so it makes me sad.

I miss my Aunt Betty. There is a picture of her in my about me. She passed away last month on a sunday...and I miss her like crazy. She was like a second mother to me, i spent as much time at her house when I was young as I did at my grandparents. My own mom was too busy sleeping around and doing drugs, and my dad was working 3 jobs to pay bills...so that left me with her and my grandparents. I think I'm sad the most that she won't get to see Grant when he's born. It's not the loss so much, b/c she was suffering and all and she's really better off...but it's the absence. I still can't believe she's not here anymore. It seems like every time I go to my grammas house she should be out the back door saying Well Jenny come on in and let me make you some cheese grits! I haven't eatn grits since she passed, it makes me too sad...

I miss my daughterEmilyso much. My heart feels literally broken everyday. And watching my daughter Amber grow up just makes me miss her more.

Quoting Weeble Wobble+Grant:“ I miss my Aunt Betty. There is a picture of her in my about me. She passed away last month on a sunday...and ... [snip!] ... Well Jenny come on in and let me make you some cheese grits! I haven't eatn grits since she passed, it makes me too sad...”

   that makes me want to cry. I'm sorry

I miss my grandfather he passed on the 8th of feb 2007 and my DD was the 7th  

I miss being able to tell him anything and everything he had the bluest eyes I had ever seen I helped look after him while he was dying,so we were pretty close.

I also hate the fact that he cant meet Hazel he would have loved her. 

I miss my brothers and sister. My mother lives in kansas with them, and shes a complete druggie. I moved there when i was 13, and my brother stevan was 7, my brother scottie 4 months and my sister makenna about a year and a half. I left when I was 15 but pretty much raised the kids while i was tehre. Scottie used to call me mommy
anywyas.. Makenna is now 8, Stevan is 14 and Scottie is 6. its hard. since I might never see them again

I also really miss my husband. I know thats pathetic since he'll be back.. but meh

and even though She drives me nuts sometims I miss my gma. I lived with her most of my life.. shes been the rock that kept me safe so I didnt have to live with the terrible smurf my mother and father put me through when I was little and my mother is putting my poor siblings through      
Anyways shes 83, actually my great Grandmother, and lives in washington. Its really sad to hear about how shes doing (from someone living with her) pretty much the only thing that makes her smile is hearing from me and makeing things for the baby
it makes me really sad

and my aunt norma died 2 years ago, ont eh 4th of july. she was stubborn and rude sometimes. But she was awesome

There are several people I miss:

- My grandpa (who died on March 22, 1990 but now that I have a son, I wish my grandpa were around to see him)
-My grandma (my dad's mom) who died at the beginning of March 2004 and who also would've been thrilled to see her great-grandson
-My grandma (my mom's mom) who just died December 19, 2007 (at least she knew I was having a boy and she started knitting him a sweater - all but one sleeve is finished, but it's heartbreaking looking at it).
-And today, even though I know I shouldn't, I really miss my son's father and the good times we've had (it sounds stupid, but I conceived my son July 5, 2007 and so the one year anniversary of that is coming up so I'm kind of bummed out).

I miss my grandma who passed away Jan 31, 2008. She was the only grandparent of mine that was excited i was pregnant. She never got to meet Kaden, but she did see pictures. They put a picture of me and Kaden in the casket with her.

Ugh Im crying now

I miss my Grandma. She passed on Mother's Day, 2007. I was her only granddaughter, and we had such a strong bond. She got sick and died fairly quickly, but I was lucky enough to say goodbye and tell her how much I love her, etc.
I still can't bring myself to visit her grave for some reason.

I'm sorry for all ya'lls losses...and it's alright for me lol. We're dealing...my hubs' great grandad also passed away about a week or so ago well probably more like two weeks now...and that brought back all those memories. They sang the same songs at his services they sang at hers. Meh anyway. Please excuse me from this thread b/c I'm gonna get too emotional lol

I think I miss too many people to list...

I miss my grandpa.. he passed in 1994 from a brain tumor. He was like a father to me in some ways. I would always go visit and he'd paint my fingers... Yes, fingers. He didn't understand you were just supposed to pain the nail... so I'd always get a glass of water and a paint brush and show him how to do it.

I miss my little brother James who took his own life in 2000. Though we fought like cats and dogs, I miss the hell out of him and hate that he isn't here to see his neice and won't be there for my wedding.

I miss my dad who took his life in 2001 to go be with my little brother. I didn't have the best relationship with him, but I loved him. He isn't here to see his granddaughter (1st grandchild) nor will he be there to walk me down the isle at my wedding.

While this was/is a great idea.... I'm in tears and I hate it. I feel like I need to "hide" them because I don't really feel like talking about this with my fiance' who is right next to me... What do you say once you've said all you can about those that you've lost??

i miss my grandad, he died december 16th 2006,

he went into hospital for a knee replacement and had a heart attck during the opperation. he was in a coma for 2 days and i was with him when he slipped away..

now im pregnant i miss all the little things he did when i was expecting my daughter ... he used to send me little cards when i was feeling ill just to say he loved me and couldnt wait to meet his first great granchild.

he was a very special man and i think of him everyday.
