i write (a poem)

i write because i miss you
because i cant kiss you
my arms ache to hold you
so i put pen to paper and try to compose you
mere words can not capture your beauty
mere words can not bring you to me
i write because i want to be with you
i want to be next to you, holding you
damn, i dont know if i can take longing for you
i write because it makes it seem like you're not so far
these words close the distance
they bring you to me, momentarily
but then this distance seems even greater
when i look up and all i have is pen and paper
the emptiness next to me seems so vast
so i write
i try so desperately to write the pain away
the pain of you not being here
the pain of spending one more day without you
i try to write my blues away
what results is but fragmented thoughts
i am fragmented without you
i write to gain a sense of myself
who am i without you
but one looking for you
i write so i dont cry
yet each time i fail
but since im missing you
wanting to kiss you
i write
