I woke up today with your arms wrapped around my body
Your warmth gave me peace
Your smile woke me up
It was nice to feel you again
I missed you
You left late afternoon, around dinner time, yesterday
I didn't know where you went
For multiple hours, I was surrounded by darkness
Calling out and hoping you were near.
As it got later, you became more distant
Almost as if you were gone completely
I waited for you
I saw others that reminded me of you
They were beautiful
But not as beautiful as you
I saw them best when nothing else was around me
That's where you are different
I can see everything clear when I am with you
But they required me to leave everything behind
As time went on, I fell asleep waiting for you
Hoping you would come back
And you did
Like you always do
