a poem for thought

i wrote this in my car while waiting to pick up my sister and just found in again in my wallet about a month later...

What is it when you feel for something absent?

A physical feeling that takes your body, but nothing to feel for.

The pain, the sensation, the yearning for something so distant,

So seemingly unattainable.

How can you feel this when the object of desire is missing?

How can you feel this when you want what you can't see?

How can you feel something you can't touch?

This feeling,

Immense, deep, and invasive.

Find me so it can go away.
