Do you ever miss someone so much

That you crave for their smile and you long for the touch

Of their hand on your hand, when all is okay

All you want is to see them for a day

You want at the very least to see their smile

Even better, to stay and talk for a while

When you're apart it feels like cold empty sadness

The sight of their face would give you pure gladness

Have you ever needed someone so much

That the pain of separation is simply not just

You need, just sometimes, to look into their eyes

Only when they're away do you realize

Just how much you need them, and every day apart

Is a knife in the gut, like a blow to the heart

You wonder if knowing them is worth all the pain

With all the melancholy, how can you stay sane?

But you realize without them, you wouldn't know the happiness

Of the feelings they make you feel, the stupid lovely sappiness

You realize you're stuck now; you need them with your all

And just to have them, you'd go through the withdrawal

Of that cold empty sadness, never seeing them enough

With all those conflicting feelings, isn't life rough?
