I miss you more when it's cold. The only way I can describe it is that it is similar to the way a person who has damaged their bone feels after its healed or the way someone who's lost their limb feels when it's cold. The pain becomes acute and pinpoints itself directly to the place it knows it can strike a nerve. I've had this reoccurring nightmare of losing you for so long and now this weather is making it hurt so much more when you're away from me. Deep down, I'm rational and I know who I am to you. I know you love me. I know you're not the type to leave someone. And I know you're busy right now. But it's so hard to fight my mind when I'm being irrational and the only thing I can feel is sad for a reason I cant even begin to understand. It's ripping pieces of my heart apart. The hurt is so blinding and deafening that all my other senses are not heightened. They're lessened. Because my mind knows, the less I feel the better. Because the more I feel, the more this pain, this thought of losing you, will wrap itself around me until I suffocate, choke on my own pain.
