i miss you

it’s late at night

when i miss you.

your presence.

your arms holding me tight.

your feet tickling mine.

your body against mine

as i feel the slow rhythm

of your breath as you sleep

next to me.

it’s early in the morning

when i miss you.

your laughter.

your feet shuffling to make breakfast.

your fingers running through my messy hair.

your hands holding my face

as you kiss my lips

and softly tell me that

you love me.

it’s every second of every day

that i miss you.
