You can only understand how much you need or care about someone until you think about what you would do if they were gone. You won't realise how much you love the sound of their voice unless they stop talking to you. You won't realise how much you love the glint of light in their eyes unless they stop looking at you with a smile but instead completely emotionless.

I would stare in disbelief. I would lock myself in my room. I would cry, and that would just be on the first degree of the sadness meter. I would feel lonely in a crowd of people.

Even if they are still physically there, they may not be letting themselves in your heart anymore...and that is when they are gone.

I feel replaced.
