They always say
That missing people
Comes in waves,
But missing you, oh darling,
Is nothing like waves for me;
For waves appear calm at first,
And missing you has never been
In the least bit calm.

It is like a raging hurricane
That I am unable to escape,
As creeping, ghastly arms
Force me even deeper
Into an endless abyss that
Swallows me whole.
Yet never able to reach the eye
Until I am near you once again,
That darling, is why I fear
When you tell me you are leaving;
I know not how many more
Of these treacherous storms
I can take.
