when you miss someone..

When you miss someone special that's so far away, you can't help but try to remember the few nights you saw them before it was time for you to go. In your head you try to replay the moments of that last goodbye, creating a vivid image of their longing face, their anxious body in a stance pointed to you, the sun on their skin. You go back farther in time to remember more places you saw that had anything to do with them. At night you fall asleep remembering them, while they're having breakfast remembering you. With the same ray of light flowing through their window from the sun in the sky being reflected on to the yawning moon pouring silvery light on the outlines of your cheek in the dark.
When you miss someone there's a hole in your heart. You talk to them often, you know everything about them, but there's nothing of their essence to warm you in a cold bed. There's nothing to kiss, nothing to sing to, nothing there for you to hear the sound of their breath. It's an empty feeling, but you must carry a heavy heart where ever you go that life leads you. Still with the sound of their voice and their image in your mind, you continue to move forward and your love becomes pure and strong. With time, the teary eyes from the pain of an echoing heart will soon be dried by the hands of your someone.
