I realized many things as the time passed
one of the more important ones being
how much I need and want you beside me
that you're so good, loving of a being
You were always around me, somewhere near
loving, giving, sacrificing and more
but I don't know why I wasn't even
thankful nor fully aware of your love
I was young and reckless, now I see it
I went for something that seemed to look good
I ignored and stepped over your presence;
I was proud and selfish but you were good
I hope it's not too late. Say it's alright
I'm Sorry; would you forgive like always
as you always did, like how you used to
say “no worries” to all of my mistakes
Hope it's not good-bye; hope to see ya soon!

even though the rhyme scheme isn't complete, I think it makes a great poem in itself. It really touches on some deep topics. How one can be so inconsiderate and reckless when they are young, and how one does not realize how much something means to themselves only to realize it after it's gone. Sorta makes me think of my parents :)
