How can i love
when i can't even love myself?
How can i make you settled
when my heart is nowhere to be found?

Don't tell me
That it's love
When you want to keep him
All to yourself

It's not the attention
That you need
It's him, and all of him
That you want

When you tell me
That it is love,
I know that you know
That it is not that

Keeping him for yourself
Not wanting to share his smile
Treating him like your own
But in reality, he's not

You tell me it's love
When in fact it's not
It's you looking for something
That is not what it is
Missing You!©

When I am here, I miss being there
When I am there, I miss being here

When I am in solitude, I miss companionship
When I have companionship, I miss solitude

When I am single, I miss being in relationship
When I am in relationship, I miss being single

When I am working, I miss not working
When I am not working, I miss working

When I am in the city, I miss the countryside
When I am in the countryside, I miss the city

When it is winter and it is cold, I miss the summer
When it is summer and too hot, I miss the winter

When I am on the prairies, I miss the mountains
When I am in the mountains, I miss the prairies

When I am on the rim of the Grand Canyon,
I miss being at the bottom
When I am at the bottom of the Grand Canyon,
I miss the rim,

When I am on the ocean, I miss dry land
When I am on dry land, I miss the ocean

When I am flying, I miss the ground
When I am on the ground, I miss flying

When I am on the east coast, I miss the west coast
When I am on the west coast, I miss the east coast

Maybe what I am missing is the point of it all
