The "Simplicity" of Missing You

I can't focus.

And it's all your fault.


I should be concentrating on more important things,

But then your face swims into my daydreams

And your smile and your laugh pull at my heart strings

Leaving me shattered.


I miss you.

It's just that simple.


So then why do I feel so angry?

I feel like somehow you're working against me.

I feel deprived of you and it's made me a weakling,

Crying on the bathroom floor.


I love you.

I don't know how to live without you.


I guess that's why I find my face in a pillow,

Or I'm staring wistfully out the dirty window,

Imagining home and sitting pale as a ghost,

But you'd never know.


I get really sad without you.

But I would never tell you that.


You're too busy living your life to worry about me.

It's ok.


I'll pretend to understand.
