"In French you don't really say, "I miss you." You say, "tu me manques," which is closer to "you are missing from me."
I love that.
"You are missing from me".
"You are part of me. You are essentially by being. You are like a limb, or an organ, or blood. I cannot function without you".

           I miss you, I miss us, I miss me-the me when I'm with you. I miss the talks we had even though it included random and mostly stupid stuff. All of the stupid and random things we could ever think of poured into the most awkward but satisfying and comfortable conversation. You used to share all about your life with me. Everything I know about you is from the talks we had. You always told me about your favourite food, colour, game anything and everything you name it. Whatever you were interested in, I knew it. You also told me how you like to do a particular task in a particular way only and how you don't like it any other way and I used to try my hardest to learn that but you don't know that.

       I miss the silly smile that always adorned your face and mine too whenever we saw each other. That silly smile, but it was meaningful, wasn't it. The meaning understood only by the two of us. Your smile made my day brighter. You don't know but you have that perfect smile. No, you don't have dimples or those pearly white teeth they show in movies it's just a simple smile. A smile which came from your heart and it was perfect- my kinda perfect.

      I miss the way you laughed. Your laugh used to stir something inside me. A beautiful kind of sensation surging through each and every part of my being whenever you laughed. I miss your eyes shining bright in the light. Your dazzling eyes which made me fall for you in the first place. They held this kind of sincerity and risk-a risk I wanted to take.

        I miss your jokes, the way you teased me. I miss you next to me holding my hands, being my light and guiding me through my path. I miss you so much that I can feel my heart breaking. I know you feel the same but sometimes I just can't find the light and then your eyes they show these emotions which illuminates a flicker of hope in me again.

"When you feel your love's been taking
When you know there's something missing
In the dark, we're barely hanging on
Then you rest your head upon my chest
And you feel like there ain't nothing left
I'm afraid that what we had is gone
Then I think of the start
And it echoes a spark
I member the magic electricity
Then I look in my heart, there's a light in the dark
Still a FLICKER of hope that you first gave to me
That I wanna keep, please don't leave"
