when i say i miss you.

your face haunts my dreams
being awake makes no difference
in the presence of your absence
i feel an ache i can't comfort
cycles of passion bleed
through crumpled sheets
i feel your breath on my cheek
surreal visions of your smile
your laugh is a tune i can't forgot
your happiness is all i really want
when i say i miss you
what i mean is
my heart aches
