Literature Text

Today I woke up beside me
And tickled myself awake;
I got myself ready for school slowly
With a sigh,
Then kissed myself goodbye
And wished me a great day.
After school I called me, just to hear my voice;
I don't want to go to work,
Like I have a choice.
Later I came home
And kissed myself hello,
Told myself about my day
And how it went so slow.
I made love to myself;
Made it last a while,
Then held myself tight against me
And fell asleep with a smile...
But something was missing,
It didn't quite fit
As I floated in my imperfect bliss,
Part of me was detached
And, try as I might, I couldn't easily replace;
When I looked at me,
I was wanting your face.
What I'm trying to say is,
Part of me's not here
Though I will it to be,
But the part that I need
Is just out of reach;
What I'm trying to say is,
The missing link to my fullness
Has your distinct scent,
Your manner, your gestures, your carress,
Your posture, your laughter, the way you love,
The way you yell and the way you sob;
It has your taste on my lips,
Your very essence.
What I'm trying to say is,
The part of me that's you
Needs to come home soon;
This isn't the same dance
When I do it myself,
I need all of me;
The puzzle's not done,
You're what I need...
Complete me
This is how I feel a lot when Josh isn't around. When he went away on a trip, I felt like I was missing a piece that he had. When he came home, so did it. That "it" doesn't have words or a description, it just is. It's what is made out of love. Pieces of two become one.

This is wonderfully written. It seriously made me start to cry, you captured the essence of loneliness so well.
