Life was easier back when I didn’t come to miss you so.
Back when I didn’t think about all the times you’d come and go
About the little love letters you hid in all my stuff
and how now it seems like I could never get enough.
The smell of your hair, your soft touch in the midnight hour
This dream of you and me that gave me so much power..

This thing that I’ve come to miss so much
The way you smiled, the warmth of your touch..
The way we’d laugh for hours like children
and the days spent thinking about back then…

Back when the world didn’t matter for that hot minute
and now all I’m left with is this passion to try and relive it.

Author's Note: I wrote this for an ex of mine, Mary... She had hid these 'I love you babydoll' pieces of paper all through my things and then dumped me when she went back to school.. So about a year later I had to move.. and I didnt fathom how many of these little pieces of paper would come to haunt me as I packed and unpacked my stuff.. I would throw them away.. but another would just pop up someplace else.. talk about torture...
