I miss you like I miss ******* running through my veins.
Like I miss forgetting my head was attached to my body.
Like skipping out on dinner dates to run suicides,
like yeah I was sweating red and white down my nose.
Like I forgot to call you and tell you I had gotten clean.
I miss you like the way I miss falling in love with you again in my dreams.
Like waking up to realize you’re not there.
Like trying to wiggle my way into your heart
and say I’m sorry I burned you here.
Like wishing I could have you near again.
I miss you like withdrawals and headaches that turned me inside out.
Like remembering the Morse code pattern of your mouth.
Like writing you to sleep.
Like hearing you say you loved me.
