missing
I miss you
That’s all I really need to say.
I don’t need to turn it into a simile or a metaphor
Because there is no need.
I just miss you
I don’t want to get all sappy
But I probably will
I want to let you know that
I really miss you
Plain and simple
I miss your smile and your face
I want to miss your eyes
But I can’t remember what colour they are
I want to miss your laugh
But I can’t remember what it sounds like.
And I know you miss me too
But I think I will always miss you more
Because I loved you.
You just thought I was your friend.
But secretly
I really did love you.
And secretly
I still kinda do
So come to me when you are next in town
Freshen up my memories of
Your eyes and your laugh
And let me know if you are worth missing
Otherwise I’ll forget.
But truth be told
I don’t EVER want to forget
You.
