Lost in Thought

Missing You

I miss you every second of every day.
I see you in everything I do,
everything I see.
You have built yourself into my daily routines and sights.
The smell of freshly brewed coffee when I wake
fills my mind with thoughts of you.
Thoughts of waking up beside you each morning,
stumbling out of bed together as we begin our day.

I feel your soft touch
like a phantom against my skin.
Almost real enough to make me believe
you're right beside me.
I already know when I turn to look,
I won't find you here smiling back at me.
You're still miles away,
feeling so close but yet so far.
I will always miss turning to see your adoring eyes fixed on me,
and you flashing that loving smile when our eyes meet.

I miss gazing into your deep brown eyes.
Those eyes that portray so much emotion,
eyes that are described almost perfectly
within the pages of a book.
That is where I find a piece of you again.
You are in everything.
Among the flowers and fields,
where we walked hand in hand.
In the raindrops that fall before a heavy rain shower,
where we ran together to seek shelter before it poured.
In the early morning chill,
the same as the day we had to say goodbye.

I miss you, my love.
I miss you more than I ever imagined.
