When I’m not with you

I hope you know, when we’re apart,

You are always so much, safe in my heart,

There isn’t a moment, in my week,

Your pictures on Facebook, I sneak a peek,

I wait all day, for the chance to hear,

Your beautiful voice, deep within my ear,

How close I always, want to be,

With the girl who means, so much to me,

I say so much, that’s an understatement,

Because in you there is, just no replacement,

You must understand, my feelings for you,

Are unparalleled, for me something new,

From holding your hand, walking down the street,

To making love, between the sheets,

Whatever I did, to deserve this chance,

Where my life, you have truly enhanced,

My gratitude, is an endless stream,

That in you I, am living the dream,

I love you Michelle, I hope this is clear,

For when I’m not with you, you’re in my heart my dear.
