I miss her. Who she is. What she added to my life, and how she helped me to grow. I miss her smile. I miss her laughter. I miss how her lips would curl as she smiled; how pink they looked; how full her cheeks are. Her softness and hard edges...

I miss listening to her stories; and her debates that sound like a verbal essay. I miss her intellect; her opinions. How she would ravenously devour a book.

I miss my dreams. I miss feeling her arms around me when I sleep. I miss her possession, and I miss her spark; how she used to pull me close like I was hers.

But most of all, I mourn for my heart - and all the dreams...

that never were...
