I will miss you when you are gone
April 27, 2010
Oh food, you seem so simple at first
I take a bite of our friendship and swallow without tasting.
Then when I am done I realize you are gone.
I long to taste you here again to savor our time together
I should have paid more attention
Your flavor tingled my senses
You gave me a tingling down my spine
It’s sad that I just took it for granted when it was all I ever wanted
I will think of this feeling until the next food comes around.
So I have learned from you
One simple thing, oh food, that I should find something I like and savor it while it is here.

You have some skills, keep it up.
If I had a friend like you I would miss him/her. I find your poem totally true.
remember to enjoy who they are, not blow them off and cherish every moment with them.
