"Will you miss my hair and how wavy it is?
Or will you remember how the wigs I wore bought
out the style in me
Will you miss my smile?
Or will you remember just how yellow my teeth are
Will you miss my cheeks?
Or will you remember how dry my skin was
Will you miss my soft-spoken voice?
Or will you remember how I blurted out my
aggravation to you
Will you miss the brightness of my eyes?
Or will you remember how wide my eyes got out of
frustration
Will you miss the warmth that my body held?
Or will you remember when I wasn’t at your side
when you wanted me to be
Will you miss my advice?
Or will you remember how naïve and immature I was
Will you miss the wisdom you claimed I have?
Or will you remember how much I had yet to learn
Will you miss my poetry?
Or will you miss me not wanting to come out of my
shell to recite it for the world
Will you miss my sense of humor?
Or will you remember just how bland, sarcastic,
and narcissist I was
Will you have missed your chance to truly get to
know me?
Or will you tell everyone that I was too shy to
figure out
Will you realize that I was never who I wanted to
be?
Or will you remember that I was what you wanted me
to be
Will you wish you’d spent more time with me
instead of catering to everyone else’s beck and
call?
Or will you remember how I waited up for you for
hours, days, and even weeks to get my time in as
your wife
Will you miss my antics and aggravating behavior?
Or will you remember playfully punching you,
awaiting for a punching match
Will you miss what was wrong with me?
Or will you miss what was right with me
Will you miss what I did for you?
Or will you miss what I wanted to do for you
Will you miss what I needed you to do for me?
Or will you miss what I needed from you
Will you miss who I was when you met me?
Or will you wish for who I have become?
Will you forgive me?
Or will you forget me?
Will you miss how brilliantly my mind was?
Or will you regret that I lived in my mind so
much
Will you miss that I wasn’t materialistic?
Or would you wish that I was more materialistic
and more expensive
Will you miss me?"
