I never felt as loved as the time you said you missed me.
You didn’t say it, that you missed me
but it was implied.
We hadn’t talked all day
which was rare
because even busy I always found time to find you.
It was late.
I was late
but I would never finish 24 hours without a word your way.
It was a text
but at least it was something.
Swiftly, deftly, clear.
I miss you.
Sorry I’m not there
or some other type of longing.
But my words never made it.
They were interrupted.
Halted. Ceased. Deterred.
Instead of my words laying sweetly on your screen
Engaging in my nothings on how I miss you
Your words did so to me.
You didn’t say you missed me
You didn’t say you need me
All you said was “you there?”
Its all I needed to smile
To beam
To set off fireworks in a still nights sky.
You missed me
You had waited for me and wondered where I was
and when I would be there.
You missed me
At the end of the night you reached out
not wanting to wait until morning
You missed me
I couldn’t wait
I was a need of yours.
I said something back
Overly apologetic and obsessive, but I was always like that
and yet still missed me.
Just Like Lana
