FEELiNGS What happens when you're all alone? What happens when there's only one other person? Are you happy?? I am. Written January 20, 2003.

Feelings

The dark night closes in around me
Tears roll down my cheeks and lips
I wish for your arms around me,
Holding me tightly from all harm
You whisper sentimental words
Into my open, waiting ear
I smile into the darkness
And my tears cease to fall
You tell me to ignore them
You tell me to be strong
I listen and close my eyes
I take in your being
I drift off to sleep
And dream of you
I dream of what our life was
I dream of what it could be
I open my eyes in the morning
And you are there with me
You watch my moves as I yawn
As soon as I am out of bed,
You carry me away to a land
Where all my dreams come true
And we can live forever
You are a perfect rose
Beautiful to see and touch
You have your thorns
Thought we all do
You make me feel whole
You make me feel alive
You make me feel like me again
