You

Whenever I'm alone or feel sad, 
Depressed, I go online to see your name, 
Erases faces of the past 
And it grows once more this flickering flame.   

How the simplest of things can fix a frown 
And rearrange it to a crescent that's blessed, 
By an image of she or the name that sounds 
Peacefully in ones mind to be kept.   

Oh how I must confess a little burn it brings, 
Not seeing thee near or around, 
But when I do birds begin to sing 
And all my happiness bursts out.   

One day when it all settles down... 
I hope you acknowledge this joy I've found.
