“Missing you,
I missed a part of me
I shared with you
that’s now gone.
Missing you,
when really,
it was the way you made me feel
and the things you made us do.

But I can’t help missing
who I was with you.
Missing you,
I missed
and missed so much of the world
and wasn’t even missed in return.”

“I felt an overwhelming gratitude in my life right now and wanted a chance to acknowledge it. I felt that any thanks given to any god all went to the same place, anyway, no matter what religion you were centered in.”
