The Hows, Whys and Whats of Missing You
How can it be that your absence is felt so keenly within my soul?
Why do I feel your hands upon my body but you are nowhere to be found in the flesh?
What do I do with the empty feeling I have when I am alone?
How is it that my eyes water at the thought of how tenderly you love me?
Why does time seem to drag along carrying the load of the years as I await your arrival?
What can be done to remedy the chill I feel when I lay in our bed sans you?
How is it that my entire world seems to be spinning furiously out of control when I face it in solitude?
Why do I need to inhale the scent of your cologne upon your shirt to derive comfort from my pain?
What can I depend upon in my hour of need?
How, Why and What makes all this happen? It is because I miss you. These are the Hows, Whys and Whats that construct my life without you.
