Heavy hearts

When I miss you

My body gains a thousand pounds

Gravity multiplies by ten

And I couldn't move a limb if my life depended on it

Everything slows down

My chest feels heavy

My sight goes to the ground

And my heart stops beating steady

I could be with you every second

Of every minute

Of every hour

Of every day, and never get tired.

How could I?

With that smile that outshines the sun

And a voice that soothes lost souls

I found myself in you

You stitched me back together

Piece by piece

Little by little

Word by word

And even when I miss you

And my body feels like a thousand pounds

I can still listen to the sounds of your voice

Soothing me once again
