Missing

I will sing like a bird until you come home
I will smile with my teeth showing as if you were here
I will jump from cloud to cloud with your hand in mine
Laughing like we use to

I will wash your clothes as if you still wore them
I will shed my weight as if you asked
I will celebrate our anniversary with a cooked dinner
I will not accept you are not coming back

I will not be stuck on what’s happening now
What you were or would be
You will run through my head like a home movie
You will pulse through my veins like you’re still my lover

I know you are gone but I refuse to believe you are missing.
