i miss you i want you


ImyIwy

There is so much in me,
which reminds me of you;
that it would be appropriate
to say that
i do not miss you
as much as i
want you.

and i want you
like how a leaf
wants a dew drop.

Yes, like that
and absolutely like that.

A lovely expression of that need for what a loved one brings.

primal longing ~~~

it reminds me of a line from a Donovan song:

"When rain has hung the leaves with tears
I want you near, to kill my fears
To help me to leave all my blues behind"

To miss and to yearn for someone in this manner are very strong feelings and your words get them across clearly. L9-L10 create an emphasis as to how important and needed this person is. This reminds me of a time when my love and I couldn't be together for a while and I felt exactly the way you're describing it. Very nice, thanks.
