Black words on white parchment
     Paper, if you will
Saying imissyouimissyouimissyou
     Over and over again
Not “iloveyou”, “imissyou”.
     I could never love you for more than who you are
But I can miss you for more than we are together.
     The sum of our whole parts
Which will never even out
     To be a whole
This message, these words
     Will never be read
Since this is the letter
          I’ll never send
you know who you are

Mmm, reminds me of a modest mouse lyric: "I miss you when your around"
