are you missing someone today?
someone living.
someone passed.
is someone on your heart, but out of sight?
i miss my baby brother today.
he is across the pond in Ireland for the year.
i am so excited for him, that he is there, but I can't help but ache to see him.
you know those people that always make your day better when you seen them. whether you were having a good day already, or it was one of those you would rather leave - that person enters it and your day is instantly taken up a level.
i miss my husband.
he just left for work.
he is only 15 minutes away. and I can talk to him on the phone at any time.
but i still miss him.
you know those people that you are around constantly and never get sick of. you are so use to being with them you feel strange and a bit empty when you are not.
i miss my paternal grandfather.
i never met him. he died years before i was even born.
i miss knowing him. i wonder what it would feel like to have him look into my eyes and smile at me. hug me.
you know that person you have heard all the stories about? you know that if you could just meet them you would get along swimmingly. one more person in your life to love. is it even possible to miss the unknown? or is that another emotion all together?
i am not sad today. i didn't mean for this post to sound so.
i am just missing some people.....
does that mean i am sad.
does missing = sorrow?
no
but I do have three kisses for three men i can't presently kiss.
i better go plant them on my babies!

I often dream of some person that doesn't exist in reality (at least not mine), and when I wake up, I miss them all day. It's a vague and hopeless kind of missing...because I didn't even know the person, and never will (unless we meet in a dream again!)
I miss my father...I keep thinking he'll come walking around a corner...like he never really went away. Oh, and my grandmother Ola, who was a rebel like me...my Aunt Maryanne who told the dirtiest jokes ever...I tend to miss the people who are gone from this world...those are the ones that make my heart feel heavy.

ps...I just love how you "put" things...you are a magical weaver of words!
