I - M - U

Since the day you left

There’s a void inside me that keeps growing inch by inch

Like a dying star burning, slowly losing its gleam

But denying it somehow gets me through

I miss sleeping knowing you’re beside me

And waking up in the morning seeing you still fast asleep

I have slept and dreamt by myself half of my life

But now it feels different to lie down and dream here alone

I miss breathing in the air you breathe out

And the wonderful feeling it gives me

I miss watching you sleep and hearing you snore

Now nothing feels like that at all

I miss your stories even if you repeat it over and over
I’d do anything to hear them again

Your voice gives me the security that you’re there

Even if we’re really apart

I miss joking around with you

And laughing until our stomach aches

I miss the midnight snacks

Even if I gain some weight

I miss our fights even if it takes the next day

Somehow it feels weird to feel a different kind of pain

I miss the arguments that we had

It reminds me that two people can share a lifetime together

no matter what their differences are

I miss your eyes and how you look at me

Your stare makes me believe that I’m pretty
I miss your lips and how they kiss me

And the shiver it sends down my spine

I miss your loving words

That makes me burst into tears

I miss everything about you baby
I can no longer wait to see you smile for me
