I Miss You

I don’t want to be stingy

I also don’t want to say it

Out loud

But I need to write these

Experiences

Some where other than

The underside of my skin

It was freedom is what it was

Even though that makes no

Sense

Even to me

I miss our

Conversations

If that’s what you call a day

Of putting your mind in an

Adventure park

No lines

Everything is free

After a life time of living in

1s and 0s

Trying to read hieroglyphs

There was a real person standing right

Here

And my cells have been speaking this language

All of eternity

Home

Is what that felt like

I miss learning from you

You taught me all the things

No one else could

Stuff I needed

To learn how to breathe freely in

This world

I have you to thank

For everything that matters in my life

Now

I don’t think you care

But I do

I stopped talking after

You

I don’t feel like it anymore

It’s pointless

And that’s okay

The silence understands

And I do too

That the realest stages

The truest stories

Play out in the four chambers

Of a quiet heart
