I woke up in the middle of last night
and I gazed upon your precious face
my body was flooded with thoughts
emotions swarmed my existence
I realized how comfortable I am
in your presence, curled up beside you
gazing into your eyes, feeling you next to me
the thought of you not being there hurts
tears form in my eyes
my heart aches
I reach out and touch you, gently
feel the electricity surge through me
I realize that I can’t hide these feelings
I realize I don’t want to run anymore
I realize that my world feels complete
when you are near me
and when you are away
I think of you constantly
I long to be next to you
from the moment you entered my life
I knew that things would be different
never would I have dreamed
that things would change so much
so quickly, so painlessly
never would I have imagined
that I would want someone
so much, so often
to be a part of me
my life
my existence
