When You Leave Me

When you leave me, I'll appreciate you

more.

Every phone call suddenly becomes

urgent.

Every text message seemingly becomes

valuable.

I'll explain everything to you

in detail

School, family, hobbies.

And I won't want to stop

talking to you.

But when I see you, the world turns

upside down.

Or maybe it turns sideways.

Well the Earth is a sphere.

I don't think it matters much,

because all I'll be looking at is you.

Okay, that sounds really creepy.

Sorry,

but it's true.

I'll want to memorize your every feature.

The shade of your eyes and your hair,

or your height and your chiseled surface.

I might not speak as much in person,

because I much rather listen to you.

I want to figure out what words you stumble over,

or be attentive during the stories you told me that made you smile.

And when you laugh,

I will definitely laugh with you.

The things that you find funny,

I'll find dazzlingly beautiful,

And I'll laugh at the simple things.

The things I never thought could be beautiful.

When you leave me,

I'll tell you "I miss you" or "I love you"

I type those words often,

because I don't feel that once is enough,

but after a while each word begins to lose meaning.

When i see you,

I'll utter it once.

If you allow me, I'll tuck myself into your arms.

allowing every part of me to remember what it was like to feel your warmth.

If you do not pull away,

I'll snuggle myself into your neck or chest.

Taking in your scent,

and not letting you go

When i whisper, "I've missed you"

I'll squeeze you tighter.

I'll wrap my arms around you hoping to keep you as close as possible.

Then, I'll breathe out, "I love you."

It will probably be inaudible,

but i hope the message from my lips traveled in through your skin

instead of through your ears.

I yearn for you to feel that i love you

not hear it.

When you leave me,

I'll ask you to come back.

Because learning to be without you was something I never wanted to know how to do.

I've been talking to a lot of old friends, and seeing a few today really hit me. I was speechless honestly, and all i wanted to do was hug them for hours on end.-Airi (>^o^)>
