I Miss You

I listen to your favorite song and pretend I hear you commenting on it.

I sit in the sun and tell myself your best friend will show up with you tagging along.

I hold the phone in my hand and make believe that, even for a minute, you called to say hi and you missed me too.

Truly I wonder where you are and what you’re doing.

That whatever you’re doing it’s keeping you happy like I wish I could do.

Something is making me feel like you’re missing.

I know practically you are.

But you’re in my heart and I’ll never let you leave that place you’ve always held so dear.

The shiny silver star I have wrapped around my neck represents you and how much you mean to me.

If I ever seriously lost you I don’t know what I’d do.

If you never said goodbye and that you’d miss me too.

But staring at the clear blue sky and feeling the warm spring sun brings memories of you…

How things were a simple year ago.

And what I wish they could be now.

How I miss you…

And hope you’re doing the same.

I just wonder where you are,

And if whatever you’re doing is making you happy.

Like I used to.
