Separation Issues

Loneliness is a frequent friend
when you are not around 
I cannot sleep, I overeat
I feel run to the ground 

It drains at my happiness 
to be parted from you 
some would call it separation issues
I can’t deny, that might be true 

I often feel irrational 
in our times of separation
my mind jumps to oblivion
an eternal pit of damnation 

I wish I could prevent those feelings
I wish I could control my heart 
to stop these useless tears from flowing 
I need an emotional restart 

I may have separation issues 
and the loneliness always comes through
these may be separation issues
but I call it missing you
