Words For My Beloved

I need you.
Like space needs emptiness
Like eyes need to see
Like hearts need to beat
Like fire needs oxygen

I miss you.
Like a desert misses the rain
Like an old man misses youth
Like a child misses it's mother
Like a raindrop misses the roots

I want you.
Like a predator wants it's prey
Like a sky wants it's stars
Like a voice wants to sing
Like a world wants to turn

I love you.
Like a tear loves the escape
Like a regret loves the headache
Like a bitch loves to lie
Like a wound loves to bleed
