Thinking of You Poems

When someone you love has left you there is a feeling of missing a part of yourself. Like one who has had a limb removed, you constantly reach for the phantom lover. You may wish for this uncomfortable feeling to leave you so that you can function properly.

It is natural to feel that you miss the person the belongs in your life.
