Sometimes, the daydreams of love are more inspiring than the reality of the love. It is a difficult thing to face. But when we ask another to save us, we are asking for another person to be what should come from within. When we are filled with light, we can live with the daydream dissolving, and be ok with reality, and realize we have so much to give another person.

I think that this poem is fabulous. All that I would suggest is punctuation. You see since you wrote it, you hear it in your head as you know it should be; with all of the appropriate stops and pauses (line breaks do not necessarily indicate pauses or stops in poems). We readers don't know how it is supposed to sound though. We are at a disadvantage because we didn't write it. The punctuation acts as instructions on how to read it for us.
But as far as content, I often find that young writers struggle to convey love, longing and pining without sounding whiney. You did not have this problem. You combined longing with a wonderful awareness and appreciation for nature. I especially liked ...
"In the darkest nights I wonder if
your eyes search the stars for answers
as mine do. . .
The moon shines bright upon nights
as black as ink
And it's presence comforts me
Reminding me of your words of
comfort
of love"
... along with the closing lines. This was very powerful stuff.
Beautiful and heartfelt work. This was amazingly romantic and longing. I could really feel this from a deep level. Your work just keeps getting better and better.
Very sweet and romantic, you misspelled "comfort" in this line "And it's presence comfots me" and also, "Your body lie elsewhere" I'm debating weather it should be "lays" or "lies", probably "lays" though. I really liked this one though, very sweet, and I'm such a sap for romantic stuff like this piece. Nice job! ^^
