Sweetheart.
Have I mentioned
lately
that I miss you?
That I'm having
problems
going so long
without you?
I need the comfort
of you
right next to me.
I don't care if we
can't be together.
I need you here
to break the silence
that's fighting
with the darkness
to overwhelm me.
I need to know
that I'm alive.
I need you
to show me
that there's life
beyond our little
Southwest Missouri
hopes and dreams.
I need you
to tell me
that everything
will be alright...
that I'm free
to sleep
without the fear
that you won't be there
when I awake.
I'm on my way
to Sunny California
but I could care less,
because I want you
and the light
that you
give off...
the warmth
that you
radiate.
The warmth
that seaps
into every ounce
of my body,
killing the pain
that has built up
over time.
I don't need
the sun...
You are my sun.
You give me everything
I could ever need...
Light,
Warmth,
Strength.
Evertime I see you
it's like
you become
even more
of what I want,
which is hard
to believe
because I thought
you were
absolutely
wonderful
wonderful
before.
I need you.
I hope
you can
understand
that I care.
I want to say
thanks...
...for being there.
...for all the advice.
...for caring for me
when few others
would.
...for letting me
love you.
