When You Miss Me. 2019

Acrylic on Canvas.

When you miss me,

I hope you look at this painting and

remember what it feels like to have me in your arms.

I hope you remember the feeling of being so entwined

that we don’t know how many laps we’ve made

around each other’s bodies.

I hope you remember the feeling of our bodies pressed so close

that we don’t know where one of us starts and the other one ends.

I wish you could feel what I feel inside of me when you hold me like this.

In part it is joy, security, relief.

In other part it’s sadness that I will lose this moment

because it’ll come to an end.

But it’s okay.

You always say it’ll be okay.

When you miss me,

I hope you read this letter and remember

how much I love you,

how much you love me.

If you feel that something is missing in you,

know that you have a piece of me everywhere you go

and that you can come to me to find what’s missing.

You are always on my mind.

I am so in love with you.

When you miss me,

know that I’ll be missing you.

My thoughts are on you.

Always will be.

I’ll be waiting when you miss me.

I’ll be waiting for you to come hold me again.
