I Can't
I can’t live without
the first scent of the fall breeze.
I can’t live without
stomach aches from laughing so hard
with my best friend when we haven’t seen
each other in such a while.
I can’t live without
the feeling I get when
I can make someone laugh
when they were on the verge of tears.
I can’t live without
the feel of cold like water on my skin
after a long day spent in the sun.
I can’t live without
daffodils.
I can’t live without
occasionally seeing the sun.
I can’t live without
also occasionally seeing some snow.
I can’t live without
her smile in the morning
when we’ve just woken up.
I can’t live without
the feel of her hands on my back
after a long day of aching.
I can’t live without
the sound of her laugh
after I’ve made some stupid joke.
I can’t live without
her loving embrace.
I can’t live without
her forehead kisses.
I can’t live without
being able to hold her hand in public.
I can’t live without knowing
she’ll always be there,
right by my side.
