missing you

everyone asks
how much i miss you
everyone cant imagine
how i can do this
everyone wants to know
how i make it thru the days
the weeks and the months
when you are gone
more than you're here
but they dont understand
the strength of our bond
the depth of our love
the honour of our commitment
its hard to wake up
alone in our bed
when i only want to watch you sleeping
wishing i could be waking you slowly
its hard to come home
at the end of a long day
wanting to be wrapped in your arms
and to be held in your smile
but...
how can i miss you
when with softest kisses
you have breathed
your life into my spirit
and with tenderest touch
you have carved your love
into soul and skin
your love pulses thru my veins
and drives every beat
of my heart
