Missing

I kept looking.

I kept looking for you.

I kept looking for you in the halls,

To see if you would show up.

You did not.

My frown grew as the time passed by.

I know I should not be feeling these emotions around you, but I cannot help myself.

I cannot think of anyone else so perfect for me.

The way you smile at me when I tell a lame joke.

The way your eyes light up when we talk together.

The way you know exactly how to make me giggle like some girly-girl.

I cannot stop these crazy emotions.

I want to stop them, but at the same time, I do not.

I am crazy for you, so crazy for you.

That all I want to do is squeeze your hand because it is as soft as cotton.

All I want to do is ruffle your messy, brown hair.

All I want to do is cup your face and lean in...

All I want to do is kiss you and kiss you and kiss you.

However, you were not there,

You were not anywhere.

I missed you so much that my heart tightened knowing that part of my day was hollow,

As hollow as a log.
