Missing You

I never realized my love for you until that lonely night,
I laid there waiting in our bed to hear you say goodnight.
I waited unwearyingly into the eve to hear your soothing voice.
Worked hard to halt the loneliness; but my heart gave me no choice.

Missing you is like a dream one desperately abhors,
I'm wishing, yearning, wanting you to walk in through these doors.
My love for you was realized the moment you left my sight.
Tonight I pray you will be safe and God will heed my plight.

When you come back into my arms, I'll cherish your soft touch.
Bestow to you my love for you and attest to you how much.
I want to shout unto the world, profess to all my love,
For a girl who healed my heart, she is a gift from God above.

You humble me when you are near, your patience overflows.
You smother me with thoughtfulness; my love for you just grows.
You are the crutch I hold so dear, you will not let me down.
I once was lost but thanks to you Gina Maria Ortenzio, I finally have been found.
