Longing for You

Every moment without you is an eternity

I ache for the sound of your voice, the touch of your hand

My heart is heavy with the weight of your absence

The world seems dull and gray without you here

I close my eyes and see your face before me

A smile that lights up my darkest days

I remember the feel of your arms around me

The warmth of your love, the comfort of your embrace

The nights are the hardest, the silence so deafening

I toss and turn, longing for your presence

The days drag on, an endless parade of emptiness

As I wait for the moment we'll be reunited again

Until then, I'll hold your memory close to my heart

And whisper your name into the void

Hoping that somehow, someway

You'll hear me, and know that I miss you more each day.
