You are the backdrop against which all things are measured When you are missing or out of place nothing seems right the colors of the sunrise seem faint and meaningless and there's no pleasure from water against my skin When you're unhappy, the world is always too hot or too cold and nothing can fill my hunger for you You are a requirement for the world to be whole. |

The poem is intended to be a metaphor for a painting, where she is the backdrop on which my life should be painted. And without her, the painting of my life cannot feel complete or right.
