Missing you....
I miss you
We were married almost 7 years ago
Yet, I'm lonely.
I yearn for your touch
your kisses, your hugs, your time
Always like this
Wanting more than you can give.
Even while dating, yearning for you
I miss you.
You said it would get better
After we were married
but it wasn't.
You were busy with work.
So professional, so dedicated
Yet, I'm lonely
We moved to this house
so pretty, ours
New town
New house
Yet,I'm lonely
You said it would get better after we moved.
But it didn't.
Still so professional, so dedicated
Not much time for me.
I miss you
Doubts enter my thoughts
Are you having an affair?
No
Do I believe you?
Yes
You're an honorable man
So, what is it?
Is it me?
No, you say.
You're just so busy
Do I believe you?
Yes
I miss you
I yearn for you
You say it will get better after we have children
It won't.
We'll both be too busy
To be with each other.
I miss you
I miss us
I have everything a woman could want
New house, new car, faithful husband
Except your time
I miss you
Do you love me?
Yes
Do I believe you?
yes
You show your love differently
Working hard, providing well for us
Yet, I yearn for your touch, your kisses
your hugs, your time.
You say it will get better
But when?
I miss you.
I miss you.
