I miss you
I miss the way loving you felt
Before it bled like an open wound
I miss hearing the words
"I love you" rush from your lips like an ever flowing river
before you it dried up.
I miss you like the sun misses the moon
after a solar eclipse
and I miss the way our lips would kiss.
But what I miss most of all
Is the way I didn't need you
the way I need oxygen.
the way my heart didn't ache
every moment in bed while I lay awake.
I miss the way thinking of you made my eyes light up
Instead of storm.
and if I could ever love that way again,
I would rather shield myself from the pain
For even if I stitched up my heart good as new,
Your memory would beat it black and blue.
And my heart would still beat for you,
like it's the only thing it knows how to do.
