I Miss You
December 3, 2017
You made me smile, You made me laugh.
You showed me fun and happiness.
Soon my broken heart was no longer cut in half.
You ended the pain and loneliness.
You were always there when I needed your spirit.
You never treated me with disrespect.
When you hugged me tight my heart was relit.
With you it was different, everything felt perfect.
But my fear broke through and took control.
I held back the truth and watched what we had begin to fade.
I let you slip away, the one who made me whole.
Now I'm filled with regret wishing I hadn't been so afraid.
I should have told you how much I liked you,
but now all I can say is “I Miss You”.

This pome goes with my other poem The Reason Why & their explanations intertwine.
This past week when I was at my weakest I realized that there was only one person I really wanted there with me. But in the weeks before that, I realized that he seemed to be slipping away or growing distant. I realized that when I had him I was terrified of what I had because I was used to being treated like crap by guys, but he treated me right. I pulled away because I was scared it would blow up, or that I would mess it up. Now I think I did screw it up, I finally let myself admit how I feel about him but he doesn't seem to have any interest anymore. Now I miss him more than anything and don't know how to fix it. What I feared most happened and it was mostly my fault.
