I woke up this morning,
rolled over,
And you weren't there.

I long for your scent,
it fills me and satisfies
my senses in ways
unimaginable.

The weight of your hand
in mine balances and calms
my restless body.

Looking into your eyes
I see myself.
You are me and I am you.
Two parts of a whole,
in math terms we are
equal.

To be without you
And to know I always
will be is equivalent
to an insatiable thirst,
a constant hunger,
a feeling of dread.

To say that I need you
is to say the grass is green
and the sky is blue.
Without your physical presence
I am weak.

I woke up this morning alone.
