Long Distance Feelings

How I Feel When You're Gone

By Lauryn MillsPublished 8 years ago 1 min read
I miss you

I feel like I’m breaking inside. Not sometimes but constantly.

There’s a little piece of me missing and it’s making the whole structure collapse.

There’s no way I can fix it without you and even being with you isn’t long enough to fix the hole. In fact it makes the hole bigger.

It covers it with bandaids for the time we are together and then when you leave, the bandaids fall off and I’m left even more empty.

I need you more than ever

I need you to stay and fix the hole

Not make it bigger.

I've always heard home isn't a place, its a person, but I never understood it till now.

My home is missing.
