Oh, I miss you.

All of our time together

Was like the most beautiful secret;

One that only we knew

In a place where no one else mattered.

It was just us.

I miss our long talks about nothing.

I miss the way you would look at me.

Like I was the most fascinating thing in the entire world.

Like you would love me forever.

Now things aren’t clear.

We are so many worlds apart

And I know you’re too far gone

To ever really come back.

But oh, how I miss you.

I miss you.
