Closing my eyes and I can’t sleep
Every time I close my eyes
I miss you more with each passing day
Every single call
Every single message
This isn’t fair at all
I just wish to be home
I just wait for a call
I long for your touch
I long for your lips pressed against mine
I’m laying on this cold bed
All alone and waiting for you to lay on my chest
I miss the way our eyes lock and kiss
I miss your breath upon my neck
I really need you
I feel empty and alone
I know your tethered to my soul by our red string
I know
It doesn’t change the fact your so far away
Craving your touch
I’m wasting away without your love
So I choose strength
I wish I could be home
Laughing and dancing with you
Till the sun burns our eyes
And our cups are dry
I miss being in our garden
I miss your soft smile greeting me after a long day in our fields
I miss walking in our door
To your welcoming arms and soft caressing hands upon my face
I can’t wait for the journey to be done
I can’t wait for the return from this long voyage to foreign lands to end
Conscripted to fight in a useless battle I have no stake in
My love I dream of you
It’s a splendor and beauty
That keeps me driven
I awake to a reality I didn’t ask for but need to do
More than anything I just want you to know that I need you
Just you
Me and you
