missing you is different from missing anybody else. i've had empty longing, heartache that phsyically hurt me when i would cry and cry myself to sleep at night, before. but it's not like that with you; and it's not that i don't miss you as much, because honestly i have missed you more than i have missed anyone else before.
the thing is, before, it was always about the absence, the lack of speaking, lack of seeing, lack of being with whoever i needed to be with. and now, even though you're a thousand miles away you are more here with me than anyone else ever was. and my life doesn't seem empty and meaningless when you're gone, either. and don't take that the wrong way, because when you are here you make my life better, so much better, but i am still me. i am still happy. and the only thing that could make me even happier is if you were here to share it with me.
i say that i learned how to be happy, but the truth is you were the one that taught me.
