I'm lost
And what you don't seem to understand
Is what's missing in my life
Is the touch of your gentle hand.

You whisper softly
Words so loving and so sweet
They make me lonely
And waiting til next we can meet.

I'm lost
Aching with this need
Longing for your tender kiss
For love to plant its seed.

You whisper softly
Unsure just what this will be
Knowing I'm a part of you
But do you really want me?

I'm lost
Without ever hearing your voice
You captured this lonely heart
And to give it is my choice.

You whisper softly
Asking for an understanding heart
Waiting til the time is right
Waiting for this love to start.

I'm lost
There's nowhere I'd rather be
I'll wait til time loses itself
For you to whisper softly to me.

Paula dear heart, you write and I'm found, the words that you write so beautifully shine like a light calling me home. This is utterly truly first class love. As always you write with your heart, and I love it.
Do I love this, Mmmmmm Yes I do!
Take care love as always

'I'm lost

Exactly, Paula!  You've worded this wonderfully.  I love it!

I'm lost
There's nowhere I'd rather be
I'll wait til time loses itself
For you to whisper softly to me.

I'm lost in the tears
your words bring to me today...
this is quite meaningful
and beautifully written

and I wanted to tell you
I bought a book the other day
and I think you were in it
"Until You" pg 19 in I Will Love You
by Susan Polis Shutz...was this You?
