Missing You

Ridiculous – you’ve only just left!
Probably the lack of sleep..
We stayed up all night talking
Putting the world to rights, secrets to keep.

Still smell you on my sheets
Playing “Take My Breath Away”
Because that’s what you do
Holding me, as we lay.

You only left five minutes ago
Waiting for you to call
Shower, dress, write essays
Make sure the tears don’t fall.

Remembering the talk
“If you can’t talk to me in bed
then when can you?
Stop bottling it up in your head.”

Knowing that I loved you
Platonic as it may be
Hoping I meant as much to you
As you clearly mean to me.
