Lonely nights I spend,
wanting to hold you close.
I wish for you everyday,
at night, hurting the most.
How I wish we were together,
lying near and holding tight,
After such a long hard day,
I want to see you every night.
Oh, how I would so much prefer,
to hold hands, our fingers intertwined,
Instead of longing for you every night,
in my bed, you I cannot find.
To be able to run my fingers,
through your lovely hair!
Everyday my hopes, prayers, and wishes,
are to meet with you there!
Or to gaze so longingly,
into your lovely deep eyes,
and to loose my soul to them,
absorbing me, I'm mesmerized.
To feel your soft skin,
under the covers keeping us warm,
Oh how I miss you being so near,
I can't wait to accept you as the norm.
To watch you walk in the room,
wearing my jacket and t-shirt too.
I smile even now remembering,
how much that makes me love you.
I love you so much it hurts,
especially when I can't have you near.
And the nights are spent very lonely,
as I wish for your breathing to hear.
Sometimes I wake up late at night,
and reach out in my sleep to hold you.
Then I remember that you aren't there yet,
and crying when I cannot find you.
The days I don't mind as much,
everyone hustles me along.
But dark and lonely nights I spend,
listening to your songs.
So I gather my strength together,
and hold onto one bright fact:
that you love me so dearly and strongly,
and our love is sealed by pact.
One that is older than time itself,
and one that I don't understand.
But this pact binds us true,
and makes me want to hold your hand.
In a little time soon,
we will be together.
And not so long after that,
we'll not leave forever.
But until I reach that point,
my nights will be lonely and dark.
For without you to warm and comfort me,
my life is stuck in park.
Wishing to be with you more everyday,
and it will be soon enough.
I love you,
until then try to hold tough.
