I left the door open just in case

I left the door open, just in case someone I’ve been longing to see comes back.
Someone that I’ve been yearning to touch, to love, and to care about.
A figure that I have always been relying on, a figure that was there when no one else was.
A person who used to have, yet still has, a special place in my heart, who disappeared without saying anything.
The only thing that I got in return, while I was dumbfounded, waiting and waiting like the loyal puppy I am, was the deafening silence that I couldn’t bear-the silence that I never heard in our conversations, our laughter that never failed to make me smile, even while lying on the bed trying to fall asleep.
Yet there I am, lying on my bed, having a hard time sleeping because of the sudden disappearance that never left my mind.
The thought of you talking to me in such a lovely way makes me feel euphoric, yet drained.
Please… come back.
I’m still yearning, and I always will.
