I misseD you today but thAt’s nothing new,

I missed you a million times yesterday too.

I picked up my phone to tell you the news,

then realised, again, I can’t text it to you.

I saw your bright smile, at least twenty times,

and then I remember, it’s all in my mind.

I driVe without presence, the world feels surreal,

And on comes your song and thIs doesn’t seem real.

I misseD you today but I miss you a lot,

It’s helpful to miss you, it’s all that I’ve got.

I wish I could pull you down here for a while

I’m frightened to lose the shape of your smile.

I miss you today and I’ll miss you tomorrow,

There seems to be no coming end to this sorrow.

I try to go on as I know that

you care,

I know that you're willing

me on from up there.

I missed you today but I’m

trying to find, a way to move on

but not leave you behind.

A way to forge on with the

love that we had,

A way to recall you and

simply feel…glad.
