Longing

Longing is a weird feeling.

The longing to talk to someone, see someone, or be with someone, for instance, is, to me, almost an out-of-body experience. It's natural to desire something, but only when you realize how much you long for it does it hit you how bizarre of an emotion it actually is.

It's almost as if you crave it. And until that craving is satisfied, it won't go away and usually gets progressively worse. Then other emotions get involved, like sadness and/or fear that that craving won't be satisfied.

I probably sound really desperate. That's not my intention - I promise. I'm just making an observation.
