Analysis of I Miss You



When such deafening silence took over
In darkness while I'm under the cover
You'll cross my mind out of the blue
A swift moment I'll say - I miss you

When my cup of tea starts getting cold
Love letters read and neatly fold
You'll flash in my vision as my favorite hue
A brief instance I'll say - I miss you

When the sun is about to finally set
Familiar feelings in a place we could've met
You'll show up in my dreams leaving a clue
A quick scenario I could say - I miss you

Countless of times the longing were intense
Sometimes I feel, it doesn't even make sense
But those short vague minutes of "missing"
Fueled my tired system to keep going.
