Loneliness

As I sit here in my chair
My heart beats rapidly
I need your care
An agonizing pain deepens my breath
It's so hard to go without you
Yet, I continue to show my faithfulness
In you I see
A beauty beyond all beauties, can you see
You are the better half of me
Tears of loneliness stream down these cheeks
You are what my heart seeks
These hours are slow
These days never ending
I have to have you now
You are one with my very being
As you read this I hope you understand
That whenever I'm without you
Your heart still remains
Safe in the care of my hands
