Between these long hours I miss you the most

Waking up at 3 am
Wanting to curl up
in the warmth of you
Come kiss my waiting lips

I’ll fall asleep
with thoughts of you
lingering on my lips

whatever little sign I see, makes me smile… call me sad but you just mean that much to me

I’ve seen so much of this world but all I want is to see it all in your eyes

In part
You have my heart
completely
at your mercy

Loyal to a fault
I’ll stay
Heart wide open
Vulnerable and exposed
Hoping you
Will understand

I’m trying to feel you
in between all the lines written
and all the images saved
I’m trying to hear you
in between all my thoughts
and memories
where you remain
like a steady beat
in rhythm with my heart

In the early morning light
I feel the ghost of your lips
Across my skin
In the darkness I feel you close
Even when you’re worlds away
My empty arms
Miss the weight of you

Somehow you’ve become my only truth in life

To be noticed
by a beautiful mind
like yours
Makes me endlessly
grateful
and whole
Even
Without words
I feel you

Some songs I’ll never play
Because the ache for you
when I hear them
is too much to bear

I see you
In every word I write
I feel you
In every breeze around me
I miss you
In every breath I take

Within the embrace
Of this empty space
I want to find you
Waiting
Wanting

Your silent words
Devour me
Make me grow
And want more
Of this beautiful world

I see you
I ache for you
and feel so much more for you
than I’m showing
Protecting my heart
I stay here
