I miss you when you're not around
Life moves so slow when you're away
A weight drags my emotions down
Even the sun slowly turns grey

You're my addiction and I need you daily
Things fall apart when you're not near
And while I'm strong enough to keep moving
These feelings never disappear

Connecting to you warms my heart
It stokes the flames that burn inside
Striking the match doesn't take long
You always open my eyes wide

This is something that I cannot help
I've grown emotionally dependent
Feeling close to you is what I crave
You make the world feel so resplendent

When you're close to me it feels so right
My days always feel wrong without you
I'm incomplete when we're apart
But your love always gets me through

I felt really odd earlier today. I felt really neutral and indifferent. I felt like something was missing, and it weighed me down and made me feel sad for a while. It took me a while to figure out just what it was, and the answer didn't really surprise me. When you find someone who you're so deeply connected to.. you miss them. I already knew that I'm emotionally dependent, but that's what the feeling came down to. The desire to connect, the missing of that person.

That's what I decided to write about this time around. The poem itself took me much longer then it should have, but I've been distracted by various other things these last couple hours as well. Oh well.. I like how it turned out, and it's probably best that I took my time anyways.

I hope you like it.
