I MISSED YOU

Do you remember back in class
When I tried to make a pass
I wrote you a little note
“will you be mine” I wrote
I folded it into a paper dart
And directed it towards your heart
It just did a loop and landed on Andrew
I missed you

Then later when we arranged to meet
And I promised you a treat
We set a place we set a time
I would ask you then “will you be mine”
I was ready hours before, raring to go
And then the cursed bus was slow
Supposed to meet at one, I arrived at two
I missed you

Much later, in the cafe that night
I hoped you would not fight
Over a glass of claret wine
I asked “will you be mine”
I produced a diamond ring
So nervous I dropped the thing
It landed in your stew
I missed you

Married now for two full years
With much love and no tears
I’m so happy all the time
That I asked “will you be mine”
When you were away having our child
I remembered how you smiled
While my love for you just grew
I missed you
But I still get a smile and a wink from Andrew
