Missing a Lover

Missing someone you love is one of the most profound emotions we can experience. It reminds us of the depth of our feelings, the weight of our memories, and the irreplaceable presence of another in our lives. Whether we’re separated by distance, circumstance, or the passage of time, that longing can feel like an ache—both sweet and sorrowful.



There’s a certain poetry in missing someone. The way their absence lingers in the spaces they used to fill. The moments when you reach for your phone to text them, only to remember they’re not there. The songs that suddenly hold new meaning, the places that once felt magical together, now carry an air of melancholy.


But missing someone also means they meant something. It means there was love, laughter, connection. It means your heart is capable of feeling deeply, and that in itself is a gift. Instead of fighting the feelings of longing, embrace them. Let them remind you of the love you shared, the lessons you learned, and the person you became because of them.


So what do you do when you miss them? Some people find solace in writing—letters never sent, poetry woven with emotion, journal entries filled with honesty. Others turn to music, art, or travel to process their feelings. Some reach out, while others sit with their thoughts in quiet reflection. There’s no right or wrong way to navigate missing someone—only what feels right for you.


Remember to be kind to yourself if you find yourself lost in the echoes of their presence. Healing isn’t about forgetting; it’s about learning to carry their memory with you in a way that doesn’t weigh you down but instead lifts you. And maybe, just maybe, missing them is a reminder that real, deep, transformative love never truly leaves us.
