it's midnight once again
and you're not here to hold
my body is sore without you
there's no one to keep me warm
for all the nights I held you
your body and scent
were my food and wine
everything ages with time
your memories get longer
and your scent becomes stronger
still you grow with me
aware of the darkness in me
you see the shadows I try to hide
the tosses and turns on my misbegoten ride
being the person I am and the one I try to be
you stay for the person that I can never see
I'm the one in the middle always trying to be more
I do what I can to keep myself of the floor
it's in my midnight dreams and daylight fantasies
that I see the good and ignore my discrepancies
and it's those times that I see what you see
those are the times I'm happy with who I must be

Desperado,
I like the discovery of you in this write.

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown

WOW...
This is great.
When you look at yourself through someone elses eyes you see yourself a totally different way.
