I Miss You

You still haunt me

As much as I try to pretend 

You still have a hold on me

Your smile

Your hair

Your face

Your body

Your soul

It lingers

Close and still to my heart

Your jokes and your voice

Your laugh and your music

It's still here

Waiting for you to come back

The curve of your shoulders

And the shape of your lips

But I refuse to admit that

Against my will, I miss you

What we had has been over long enough to know

There is no turning back

And what's still here

Will on its own time fade away

Just as you have
