I MISS YOU

I miss you
I miss the hours we would spend
talking,
being open and honest and free
I miss how my heart would breath a
sigh of
relief because you brought me peace
I miss the feeling of hope and
happiness
and how with you I always felt content
I miss you
I miss the hours I would spend lying
by your side tracing the lines upon
your skin
I miss the way you held me close
enough
to hear your heartbeat, I wish I could
hear it again
I miss you
I miss you every minute of everyday
it’s an ache, a sadness, an emptiness
that doesn’t ever go away
I miss you
I MISS YOU I miss you
I miss the hours we would spend
talking,
being open and honest and free
I miss how my heart would breath a
sigh of
relief because you brought me peace
I miss the feeling of hope and
happiness
and how with you I always felt content
I miss you
I miss the hours I would spend lying
by your side tracing the lines upon
your skin
I miss the way you held me close
enough
to hear your heartbeat, I wish I could
hear it again
I miss you
I miss you every minute of everyday
it’s an ache, a sadness, an emptiness
that doesn’t ever go away
I miss you
