Why I miss you..

Why do I miss you?
I have not talked to you in forever
(Well three days)
But it seems like a million years.

I wish I could tell you how I feel
But instead I sit here at night
Writing away, posting my deepest
Feelings for other people to read.
And yet I cant get the courage to tell you.

Maybe its because I know they can relate, or
Maybe it just makes me feel better to get it off my chest
Whatever the answer, I wish I could just get the balls to tell you.

I used to laugh at all the girls with stars in their eyes
Cuz they were in love.
I don't know if you call this love, because we are not actually together
But whatever it is, I sure as hell can't shake it off.

I heard a song tonight, as I looked at your picture for the millionth time,
And rehashed the night before you left for at least the hundredth time today.
The song was by Vanessa Carlton, titled "A Thousand Miles".

I giggled a little when I heard it, because you are exactly a thousand miles
Away from me right now.  She says "Its all these times I think of you that I wonder if you think of me?" I thought it was ironic, because I do think of you and I hope you think of me while you are gone, and realize that we are more than just best friends.... I want to end this with the chorus to her song. It sums up how I feel perfectly.....

" If I could fall into the sky, do you think time would pass me by, cause you know I would walk a thousand miles if I could just see you, If I could just hold you... tonight"
