My heart aches,
for I am lost
without you...
My soul craves
for an end
to the darkness
that is only beaten back
by the brightness
that emanates
from your gentle soul
I delight in absorbing
all that is you
My heart races
to meet your sentiment
and I greet you
with a glowing smile
I love the essence that is you
My spirit is protected
by the embrace of your strength,
nurtured amidst
your soothing manner
and encouraged by your resilience
Your talent and ability
move me
beyond belief
For your words
offer a captured moment
that I can experience
in my aloneness
Kindness is born
and raised in your expression
Love grows
from the recesses
of a tender heart
burrowing into mine
I hear the soft call
as my heart whispers your name
in it's song
My soul is awakened
for you ignite my passion
and christen my joy
with your laughter
In these moments
I crawl into your world
Rest my fingertips on your chest
feel the pulse within
and know that with you
I want to live forever...
