5 Phases of Missing You

1. Like a drug addict. All craving and obsession. 

2. Like a drug addict in withdrawal. Violently. Constantly. 

3. Like missing summer. Fingers crossed and longing. Knowing there is nothing I can do to bring you back around but wait for the world to keep turning. Wait for fate to decide.

3. Like missing summer. Meaning sometimes I forget to miss you at all, until I look outside and realize you are no longer there, and fall asleep to images of you leaking into my dreams. 

4. Like missing childhood. Knowingly and resentfully and kindly. Wishing I had made more of it when I had it. Realizing I will never have it back now. Trying to recreate it, recapture it always. But it is gone. 

4. Like missing childhood. You left me with scars and fond memories. But you are gone. 

4. Like missing childhood. I miss it quietly and softly and out of the blue. But it is gone. 

5. Like missing hiccups. Remembering the way breathing hurt when you showed up for 5 solid minutes before youd disappear for however long you pleased. Remembering you were always annoying as hell whenever you decided to show up and wrack my body and leave me breathless. 

5. I miss you like hiccups. Meaning I don’t.
