I Miss You

I miss you.

When I listen to the sound of a piano softly singing,

When I hear the stars giggling at night,

When the imposing, deafening, roaring noise of silence assaults me,

I miss you.

If I stare too long into the mirror-reaching through eyes to soul,

If I stop to wonder why the sky stretches to heaven,

If I devour the beauty of river, mountain, pebble...

I miss you.

The world around me is

a collage,

a picture,

a sculpture,

a poem,

a song...

and it's all about you.

I miss you.
