What is it that you want,
Come quell this raging fear,
Sunshine lifts its veil
Leaves nightime without you here.

What is it that you need,
Come stall this breaking fear
Nightime drifts along,
Desperation without you here.

What is it that you see,
Come take away the fear.
Missing you takes breath,
Lost without you here.

I know that empty lonely feeling when nighttime arrives and no one is here...sighing time

...very cool, emotional. You write very vividly, my neighbor.

I will echo that this is a feeling with which a lot of us are all too familiar...wonderfully expressed, Temptress!

sp

to be with you...
I've tried to hide my passion,
but it's just no use...
piece by piece I lose it
when you walk into the room...
