I Don't Have You

It's a love poem.

I need the powerful energy of the sun to stay alive,

And I need fresh water from the rain to drink,

But I don’t need the sun and the rain as I need you.

 

I want recognition, wealth, prosperity and fame,

And I want all the good things life has to offer,

But I don’t want anything as badly as I want you.

 

I love the mountains, the valleys, the sky, and the sea.

I also love beautiful flowers, birds, and honeybees,

But I don’t love these wonderful things as I love you.

 

I have an aptitude for writing poetry and love songs,

And I have a nice house, a car, and a motorcycle,

But I don’t have happiness because I don’t have you.
