I see you there,
Staring at me.
Oh why can't we go back
To the way things used to be?

I miss you,
Every night when I'm alone,
Hoping you'll forget everything,
And not leave me on my own.

Hold me like you used to,
And kiss me on the head.
Please I would, if I only could,
Take back everything I said.

I'm sorry that,I hurt you.
That's never what I meant.
But that doesn't mean you have to run away,
Our love was never spent.

"I want a life that sizzles and pops and makes me laugh out loud. I want my everyday to make God belly laugh, glad that he gave life to someone who loves the gift, who will use it up and wring it out and drag it around like a favorite sweater." -SN
