What You Truly Mean To Me

sitting here
with my scuba gear
ready to dive in
ready to arrive in
this old picture of you
this solidified fixture of you
thoughts of you still remain
so overflowing i cannot contain
i need a place to clear my head
so blank now is every space in my bed
i just want you back here with me
oh how i miss the essence of that glee
ever since the day of your ascent
i hear the morning sunrise of your sweet southern accent
my tears flow freely as my own tributary stream
there will be no other for it was you who made my heart beam
believe you me my the knowledge of my heart's mind is true
until my turn at the golden gates, i will truly love only you
others may come and others may go
when it comes to the Ebony Princess of my dreams, you will ALWAYS steal the show
as sure as i am sitting here
with my scuba gear
ready to dive in
ready to arrive in
this old picture of you
this solidified fixture....of you....
