Missing You
Missing you
Desperate as a fish out of water
Struggling to breathe
I need you like heartbeat
Aching with constant pounding
My pulse reverberating my soul
Echoing another dimension
Will it reach another living being?
Will it reach you?
Can it travel the distance to your world?
Missing you
As the absence of gloves on a cold winter’s day
Wanting you more than warmth
Yearning for you to fill the chilled void inside
This blanket wrapped around me
Cannot replace the heat from your Love
I am fire without flame
An unlit candle
Burning for a match
To ignite my hungry heart
Missing you
Lightening without thunder
I can’t hear myself think
For the essence of sound has escaped me
I have nothing to hold onto
Clutching myself for consolation
Hands pressed against my breasts
Congested with my own suffocating paranoia
Lacking the presence of you
Missing you
I am a desolate desert drought
Thirsting for water
My movements are dry
I have no motivation
As you are my only source of inspiration
But I am lost in this world without you near
I am discarded dreams
Left to die
Missing you
To the utmost extreme
Missing you
And all that I know
And I know you better than the back of my hand
Mapped out in my mind
Our lives intertwined
Despite the distance between us
I recall holding your hand
It was like finding my missing piece
Suddenly everything made sense
Now my eyes read vacancy
Until I hold you close again
