This is a poem about my past relationship

Love is You
You just canโ€™t imagine how much I miss you sometimes!
Oh, I know youโ€™re not in Timbuktu or anything, but there are times
When not just anyone will do, times when
I really wish you were right here, right now,
To confide in, laugh with, and talk to.

Itโ€™s amazing how often I wonder what you would think about something,
Or what you would advise me to do in certain situations.
Or Iโ€™ll see something and just know that nobody else would think itโ€™s funnyโ€ฆexcept you.

I guess what I want you to know is that even though weโ€™re apart now,
I still feel closer to you than I do to many people I see every day.
Thatโ€™s just a fact.
And I thought it might make you feel good to know how very important you are to me…
No matter where life finds either of us.

Daishaun, 33
