These Are The Words That I Wish I Could Say To You In Person


I miss you in a way that I don’t really understand and can’t really express.
I miss the sound of your voice and the way you used to tell me you loved me.
I miss your eyes and how I could just stare into them for hours on end with no other purpose than to have you stare back into mine.
I miss your fingers and the way that they fit into my own.
I miss kissing your pink lips, and your soft hands, and your closed eyelids, and your smooth shoulders, and your fragile neck, and your flushed cheeks, and your scrunched nose.
I miss your eyebrows.
I miss how you would cook for me and how you let me cook for you, even though it rarely turned out well.
I miss how you used to cut my hair.
I miss the feeling of your body pressed against mine, thinking that I could die at that moment; happy that the last thing I knew was your touch, and in that your love.
I miss making you laugh, whether with me or at me.
I miss playing with your hair, and you playing with mine.
I miss cuddling to keep warm.
I miss waking up with you by my side, both of us tired and cranky, but still happy that we were together.
I miss arguing with you over the most trivial topics and being okay with losing because seeing you smile was worth defeat.
I miss singing to you.
I miss you.
I miss you.
I miss you.
I miss you so damn much.
I miss you like the air when I’m underwater.
I miss you like warmth when I’m freezing.
I miss you like light when it’s too dark to see.
I miss you like I hope you would miss me.
I miss you like time slipping away; seconds turning to minutes turning to hours turning to days.
I miss you like the months that have gone by.
I miss you like the years that we spent together.
I miss you like the decades that I’ve lived.
I miss you like the centuries I will never witness.
I miss you in a way that I will never understand and can never fully express.
I miss you so much that I wrote this for you, despite knowing that you will never read it.

In The Words Of Mr. Aubrey Graham


Thanks for keeping a secret
Thanks for the lift
Thanks for reconsidering
Thanks for not shooting
Thanks for the drink
Thanks for leading by example
Thanks for letting me think you’re mine
Thanks for passing me by
Thanks for noticing
Thanks for the last time we were together
Thanks for the first time we met
Thanks for nothing
Thanks for everything


Thank Me Later.
