When I Tell You I Miss You

When I tell you I miss you...
I'm not saying I cannot function without you.
I'm simply saying my life is better with you in it.

When I tell you I miss you...
I'm not saying that you are the center of my Universe.
I'm saying that I'm so glad that I discovered my Universe is better with you a part of it.

When I tell you I miss you...
I'm not saying that I am not enjoying my time away.
I'm saying that that I look forward to when I am with you again.

When I tell you I miss you...
I'm not saying I'm pathetic and needy.
I'm saying that I am so happy to be with someone who is secure enough to let me live my life as I need to.

When I tell you I miss you...
I'm not saying that I am miserable without you.
I'm saying the missing makes me excited about returning and enjoying the way you look at me, embrace me and show me that I matter to you.

I miss you ❤️
