I miss you so much. One more night spent crying for you. One more night spent wondering what I did wrong to lose you so soon. Everything feels so meaningless without you. I keep asking the Almighty \u2014 why did He bring you to us, only to take you away so soon? I\u2019ve never hurt anyone intentionally, never caused harm to anyone.

I don\u2019t have an answer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I want to hold you once again \u2014 to cuddle you, kiss you, love you. I miss you with a longing nothing can fill. Wish I could bring you back somehow.
