Granted

I took you for granted.
Always counting on you and your advise
never realising that you were not forever.
Wishing that we had more time.

I took you for granted.
Waiting to say something until it was too late
and you were not around to hear it.
I need to see your laugh and your smile.

I took you for granted.
Everything reminds me of you
and I can't control the pain that I feel.
I want to wrap you in a warm embrace.
