To see you today
Brings tears of emptiness
Hopes of comfort
The pain of needing you
Desires to feel you inside me
Thoughts of you occupy my every moment
I can feel your touch
I can taste your mouth on mine
I feel your heart pressed close
Need, hunger, hope, desire, longing, fear
Yet for the first time, no expectation
My heart pounds with anticipation
My heart bleeds knowing we are alone
To walk away, back to my own door
Will rip me apart again today
I wish there was a comfort to greet me
Your memory will have to be enough
I will see you in the dark tonight
As I have every night now
Alone in my bed, you remain beside me
Your memory will be enough.
