Missing
I miss people I shouldn't
I miss people I can't have back
I miss people I don't want back
I miss people who no longer exist...
Their bodies walk around with strangers inside
And I wonder if anyone misses the old me's that died

AWWWW!!!! I don't remember who left what and where and when and why but I'm happy to "see" you again! I do certainly hope this year brings many adventures ^.^
Sure, we'll call it a poem. And yes I understand your pain. I have several people which are similarly gone and I'm not sure I have the capacity to stop missing people that touched my life. Thank you!

Of course I do. I mean, I only knew you as much as Ficly allowed but when you disappeared, you definitely left a PBLT-sized hole in my life. Let me reiterate-- OF COURSE I MISSED YOU and I doubt that I am the only one. Did I disappear first? I can't remember, I might have. And . . . ahem . . . HAPPY HOLIDAYS! I AM TAKING YOUR RETURN AS MY CHRISTMAS MIRACLE! If 2016 was a wretched, rotting corpse that took lives and darkened joy itself, then 2017 has started with reunions and new beginnings. I can't wait to see what we can do.
On this particular . . . poem? I'm calling it a poem. On this poem, I can definitely empathize. I miss people, I know I shouldn't. Selfish people who hurt me. I miss at least three people that I can't have back no matter what my dreams imply. And so, you have managed to remind readers of a universal truth (I think that these feelings are universal), while being intensely personal. Good job and welcome back
