Love is Strange

Love is Strange

A Poem by Jenna Kay

It's been almost two weeks since the last time I saw you
And let me tell you
You're stuck in my head
I lay in bed at night, thinking of how much better it would be if you were with me, holding me tight
I think of your eyes and how they seem to shine when they're looking into mine
I long to listen to your words again and the beautiful poetry you speak
I keep rereading your writing as if it were written for me
I miss the way you make me feel and all the little things you do -
Wait a minute...
I think I just said that I miss you
I've never really missed anyone, it never occurred to me to
Maybe my independence built some kind of wall around me that at the sound of your voice you immediately tore down
When I felt the touch of your lips against mine for the first time I had wished that I hadn't said goodbye so soon and I could have spent a little longer with you
I missed you
And that is such a strange feeling
All these years, I've been trapped alone in my own head and somehow now you're there with me instead
I'm not used to craving your touch so much 
The way you run your fingers through my hair or down my spine
When your hand is in mine I feel like I have the world in my palm
And I'm not used to feeling so strongly
I'm not used to longing or wanting or missing or...
Loving

But your mind is a map that I long to explore
And I keep wanting more of your eyes and your words
And I'm missing you every minute, every second 
I'm just a girl who's knew to being in love
And I can't get enough of the feeling
