I sit and wait for you to come to me,
Every night I wish you were near me,
I wish you could hold me all night,
But you are not here,but rather there.
I can't do a thing without you,
My world is nothing without you,
I wish things would be alright,
But I am here without you.
You lit the fire in my soul,
You made me believe in myself,
I wish you had noticed sooner,
But maybe that's why I'm away.
My one and only love is you,
You always cease to amaze me,
I wish then could be right now,
But for now, it's not that way.
I can never begin to express to you,
How lucky I am to have you in my life,
I wish I could show you how important you are,
But I have a feeling you already know.
I am so grateful to you always,
You are always so increadibly understanding,
I wish I could thank you for how much you mean to me,
But I know by loving you that you know.
I may not need to be near you for you to feel me,
I love to hold you though and miss it,
I wish we didn't have so much in the way,
But all will pass when we conquer it.
I have so much faith in you, I don't think you know,
You have been able to love me in a way no one ever could,
I wish I could date another to forget,
But something in me always tells me, I really don't need to.
I love you so strongly, so sure of my love for you,
I spring into the world, with you always on my mind,
I wish for you to be able to understand the rest of me,
But I know it will take awhile and I know you are there.
When you see the things that remind you of me,
Don't turn away, stand there for a moment... that's where I'll be,
I wish, if I may, for you to realize this & nourish the closeness,
But that may take time to perfect & not mistake our thoughts.
I hold my rock in hand, feeling what it lets out,
Feeling everything that is going on where I left the other half.
I wish you could see the energy I'm sending you,
But I'm aware, you know I love you, & I'll always be there.
For now that is suitable fo rme, knowing you see me in sleep,
As you cross through your silent slumber-land, I'm there too,
I wish it were more, than just, in dreams that we met,
But if only dreams, then that's better than not at all!
