    Missing Senses

    miss looking at the puddle and seeing water, not current

    i miss looking at the sky and seeing clouds, not canvas

    i miss looking at the road and seeing cars, not journey

    i miss looking.

    i miss hearing sound, not voices

    i miss hearing noises, not presence

    i miss hearing and figuring what it is, not measuring the distance

    i miss hearing.

    i miss smelling a rose when its a flower, not scent

    i miss smelling food and getting hungry, not is it good enough

    i miss smelling, not recognizing

    i miss smelling.

    i miss tasting that sugar is sweet, not gesture

    i miss tasting that salt is salty, not tears

    i miss tasting that lime is sour, not a frown

    i miss tasting is with my tongue.

    i miss touching soft silk, not being

    i miss touching rough pebbles, not treatment

    i miss touching smooth mirror, not wishing what my day will be

    i miss touching is with my skin.

    i miss when heavy is when lifting a load, not my chest

    i miss when light is feather, not head

    i miss when full is after a meal, not desire

    i miss when empty is a box filled with air, not soul-less body

    i miss the time when weight and volume is numbers

    i miss getting to bed to rest,

    i miss waking up to the sunshine,

    i miss when the mattress is where i sleep on.
