Where Are You
I dialed your number tonight
And got a recording saying it was disconnected
I felt my heart drop as I inhaled sharply
Wondering what happened
Hoping you are safe
Thinking back to our first meeting
Brings a smile to my lips
And my heart skips a beat
I wondered why someone like you
Would care to speak to someone like me
There you were looking so proud
The way you carried yourself
The way you dressed
One could see without a doubt
Someone so princely among our midst
There were bad times but the good times followed always
I smile as I remember your touch
Your scent as you lay next to me
Sleeping so peacefully
I remember when you saw me after we parted for a week
The smile was beaming as you held out your arms
All I could do was walk into them
With a smile as big as yours upon my lips
Hearing the words I’ve missed you baby
My heart raced as I agreed
As our lips met in a tender yearning kiss
Your arms holding me close as the world disappeared
There was only us entwined in a loving needing embrace
The time went by and you disappeared
The sadness filled my very being
Hearing and seeing you after such a long time
Made the absence melt away
But the recording brought back all those feelings
The emptiness and loneliness rush back in
Sadness occupies my heart as I sit and wonder
Where are you
