Missing

MISSING

Today she walked into your room

And saw your empty chair

It has not sunk in yet

That you are no longer there

 

She thinks of the good times you had

Your laughter and your smile

Your kindness and affection

Your inimitable style

 

You were never one to judge

Treated everyone the same

When someone had a problem

It was to you they always came

 

Always a good listener

A true and loyal friend

All who encountered you

Knew on you they could depend

 

Six months have passed,

Six long long months

No-one knows where you went

Your bank account has not been touched

Not one penny has been spent

 

Are you living on the streets?

Have you changed your name?

Did someone else commit a crime

And you thought you'd get the blame?

 

 

 

 

 

 

Did you have an argument

Or is it money that you owe?

Did you feel afraid or threatened

Why, oh why did you go?

 

A missing person ad on Facebook

Has had five thousand views

Members of your family

Have appealed on tv news

 

You may have seen your face

On a newspaper today

Please contact someone if your able

Let someone know you are ok

 

The room's you way you left it

But without you it looks bare

Your mum's greatest wish is to look in

And see you sitting in that chair
