You

You, a lightforce that keeps me sane.
Sweet thoughts of you they flood my brain.
You cheer me up when I am blue.
The love we share is far and few.
Your silly words bring a tear to my eye.
Without your laughter I can't get by.
I'm incomplete when your away.
I wish you were here to brighten my day.
I'm a better person because of you.
You make me feel so young, its true.
I feel safe when you hold me near.
I need you now, I need you here.
When your away, when your not near.
My heart it aches, I shed a tear.
