When I cannot see you
or hear your voice
or touch you softly
I am alone

no matter where I am
or who I am with
without you there
I am lost

when you leave
my world fades
to an empty space
until you return

you are the lamp
that chases the night
the saving beacon
against the reef

my umbrella
against the storm
the cool breeze
against tortured flesh

I bless each minute
of every day
that brings you
to my willing arms

your kiss is
the breath of life
that nourishes me
and gives me strength

your scent is
cool water
for a parched soul
desperate to be healed

you are the night
the day
the essence
of this grateful life

the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost

i could never have put such feeling in to the longing of wanting to be with the one you love so well. was like you were looking into my soul.

Touching piece. Seems to say everything I would want to say to my loved one, yet the words don't flow as smoothly as yours. You are quickly becoming one of my favorite reads.

Keep them coming!
