A House Is Not a Home Without You

A House Is Not A Home Without You By Rick Rucker The carpets and the drapes are new, Still, something urgent is missing: YOU! Now that we have a place, I long always to see your face, The desire to kiss you before you sleep, And again as sunlight, into our bedroom, will creep, I am not complaining, just stating a fact, You are what I have long lacked, A friend that shares my secret fears, As you have shared my past tears, I love you more than Life, And would proudly have you as my Wife, Our place is ready, to become a home, From which we will not have to roam, It is what I have prayed for, from Above, A place for us to share our Love!
