When I examine the thoughts in my head
Only one though rings constant and true
An idea that throbs and fuels me
That wakes and comforts me, soothes me
That thought is you
And when I dig for the reasons I feel this way, here is what I find
Being with you is the only reason I look forward to waking up every morning
Taking care of you has been my drive to work harder and succeed
Listening to your ills and troubles fuels my resolve to be there for you always
Every morning I strive to be a better man to somehow try and live up the an expectation worthy of you
The only joy I have in sharing is the ecstasy in your voice when you receive something you really want
Spent a life time making other people happy only to realize the only one that makes me happy is you
It still amazes me how I can always smell and taste the sweat running down your skin
Or how hearing your voice drowns me in so much emotion I never know how best to react
I still spend hours on end staring at your pictures, wishing I was staring at you
Knowing no place on earth could ever feel more like home than your arms
What I wouldn't sacrifice to be kissing you right now still remains a mystery to me
If only you could catch a glimpse of the way I see you or how much you mean to me
Being denied time with you, is a slow poison too hard to swallow
And it shames me when others are there to be with you when those moments I cannot share
It scares me because deep inside I know I might not end up with you
Or be the one who calms the turbulent sea that lies within you
And even though this cross I bear, I hold on dearly to those moments shared.
It hurts me that you feel you add nothing to my life, you are my life... my world
There's not a day that goes by that the thought of you doesn't motivate me or build me up
I would never admit this but I could never live in a world devoid of you
My only solace is knowing no one will ever read this, you never see this
I could never live with the rejection, if you knew what you do to me
I was here...
