11. Poem

I need you,

need you like the parched earth

 needs the rain 

 

I want you 

So desperately want to be with you 

Like the birds want shade 

 

I love you 

Love you like the desert

loves the gale 

 

I miss you 

Miss you from the bottom of my heart like 

The shadow misses brightness
