The Best I Never Had

11 July 2014 9:47 AM I dreamed of you with long silken hair I reached to hold you close but you were not there I awoke with a pain deep in my heart A starving void an empty hearth You are so dear so sweet and kind You give and give and never mind Hardly ever a word of complaint Never a foul word or word of contempt Your love for others from God over flowed Your love to every one you show You love me despite my faults With true love which can not be bought How I long and how I cry To have you with me side by side You are not here you are not real You are not tangible for me to feel You are the one to make me forever glad You are the best I've never had
