You asked me in a dream what I miss the most.
The dream ended before I could reply,
To tell you there's no one thing.
Not one,
But many.
1. I miss the way you talked to me. You called me "baby girl" like it was my name...
2. I miss the way you could hold every one of my broken pieces together,
Embrace like a kiln,
Melding the edges together.
Arms that felt like home to this nomad.
3. I miss how you're both my greatest strength,
And my biggest weakness...
The only man besides my father that I can't help but cry over.
4. I miss how you insisted on taking care of me,
An independent princess who got a little too used to her king...
5. I miss how you encouraged me in everything,
Convinced that together we could conquer the world...
6. I miss how you know every inch of me,
Using everything to your advantage.
7. I miss the way you would look at me,
Like I was a rare emerald,
But now I guess diamonds are more your taste...
8. I miss how quickly you became important to me,
Our lives intertwining together.
9. I miss our phone calls.
Hours at a time,
Just listening to your voice.
My inability to sleep without talking to you first...
Maybe that's why I'm up all night now?
10. Most of all,
The one thing I should've told you long ago,
I miss you.
I miss my Sun and Stars,
My lover,
My best friend.
I miss us...
