"To know that I miss you so much when you leave; to know that I need you like the air that I breathe. To know that I want you with a passion so blind, is to know that I love you — with no doubt in my mind"I never fully realized what it meant to hurt (to truly hurt) until I wanted nothing but you to such a great extent, only to have no other choice but to convince myself that I don't.empty fields and soaring clouds. In city lights and passing cars, on winding roads and wishing stars. I wonder where you could be now, for years I've not said your name out loud.  — time has passed for you and I. But I have learnt to live without, I do not mind — I still love you anyhow.""I missed you for too long, in too many ways, that it became just another part of me; engraved deeper into my heart with the passing of time. I would wake up, stretch, breathe, and miss you. They told me to let it go, to let you go, and I would say: You cannot simply will your heart to stop beating, that no matter how long you hold your breath for, you cannot hold it forever, and I could only stop missing you if I stopped being myself entirelyForgive me if I stumble and fall for I know not how to love too well I am clumsy and my words do not form as I wish so let me kiss you instead and let my lips paint for you all the pictures that my clumsy heart cannot.""I would love to say that you make me weak in the knees, but to be quite upfront and completely truthful, you make my body forget it has knees at all."Meet me at midnight in the forest of my dreams. We'll make a fire and count the stars that shimmer above the trees.
