I miss you like the moon
misses the stars on a cloudy day
Like the empty pond misses the ducks
that have migrated for the winter
And these cold nights miss
the sound of crickets in the ambience
of their darkness
Like a single flower,
in a vast meadow full of weeds,
misses the company of a thousand of its kind,
or just a single one
And on days where we don't talk as much,
I miss how things were in the beginning
Though even when we do have conversations for hours,
I only miss you even more
Because you are not within my grasp
My heart cries out to you, just thinking about it
To me you're like an oasis and I am just the desert
Your water fills my emptiness,
the part of me that's been vacant
for a long time
Drown me in your beautiful words,
For that would be the loveliest way to die.
