I missed You before I knew you


I loved you before I know who you are. I missed you before I saw you. I died first, before you came into my life. How is this possible? Well-known sayings and maxims following a rule. Necessity is the mother of invention. Conventional wisdom, the flow of logic. Can it work the other way round? I miss you badly before I knew you if:

1. You represent the totality of what I lack. When I see you, I know it is just you. You are the immensely opposite attraction of me.

2. You are so great that until I got to know you, I know all the previous are missed. Without you, I am missing. In this case, it might be because the latter knows what the former needs, such as because I know you are lacking in (hydration), so I give you something to drink. Or it can just be a term of expression, to express how great you are. Because you are so awesome, it has led to a significant shock impact in my life resulting in me having to illustrate the dip I had before I met you. Or because the feelings are so strong, it is as if I will miss you, even if I don't know you.

3. The identification of you is already found. Such can be the feeling of emptiness, or it is already decided in the mechanism of us to miss things. So there is a natural tendency for us to reel to you.

Before one is filled, one knows how to shed. Before one learns to love, one goes on missing, filling oneself up first.

It can be said there was a voidness in our lives, before we found You. You loved us first, before we loved you.
