Difference When You Are Here

A minute apart
feels like an eternity.

  A minute together
  feels like heaven.

   You walk away,
   my world crashes.

    You come near,
    everything else disappears.

     When you're not here,
     I'm empty and cold.

      When  you're with me,
      life makes perfect sense.
