just because...
(Inspired by him)
Just because I miss you so much...
It's late. I just got back from a movie with my friends. It wasn't a great movie but I am happy it made it to the big screen. As I sat there I wanted you to be sitting beside me so I could lean over and say, "Oh yeah, I'm writing a screenplay because it can't be worse than this," or "Okay, you write the script and I'll direct because it can't be worse than this." I wanted you beside me. Just because I miss you so much.
I thought, maybe, after we finally had our time together the craving would be satisfied. I wouldn't need the fix of you as much. But it backfired; the craving now tries to consume me. My bed has never felt so empty; my life so isolated. There is so much I want to share with you. I find myself looking for you in everything. Just because I miss you so much.
I knew it was only for a weekend. I knew it was to be "no strings attached." Now I realize "Oops, I left something there." You gave me a wonderful memory to pull out and dust off when the nights become lonely. But the pain of loss overshadows the joy of our time together. I can't bear to reminisce yet. Just because I miss you so much.
I want to call you, but I can't. It's late. You're busy. I should be busy. The strings need to be cut. Our worlds, our lives, pull us farther apart. But I keep looking back... hoping you will too. Just because I miss you so much.
