The Fulfillment of Absence

A Poem

I miss you. I will

Always miss you.

And I am okay with that;

I have learnt that

In order to feel love—even

Though we never called it that—

You must also fee pain.

So I’ll miss you tonight,

And I’ll miss you when the moon

Reflects the sun, and

I’ll miss you when raindrops

Dance on the back of

My neck, the way your fingers

Used to. But I’ll embrace it.

I’ll be aware of your absence

So that, one day, when I

Or someone else fills that absence,

I will feel utter blissful elation.

Writing has always been one of my favourite things to do- from stories to essays to poetry. As I'm starting university in September '17, I thought it would be a good idea to take this opportunity to try and make funding myself easier.
