Someday

"someone who cares"...this is for you

There are many things that I
Would like to say to you
Yet, somehow deep inside
I know these words will never do

I’ve told you in so many ways
Exactly how I feel
I see your picture every day
Wanting to make it real

I read your words and wish so badly
Just to hear your voice
I’d give up everything to hold you
If I had the choice

Imagining your touch
Won’t help me feel your fingertips
Imagining your kiss
Won’t let me taste your precious lips

It’s easy just to type the words
“I love you” on a screen
I’d cross an ocean to show you
Exactly what they mean

You just don’t understand
How every word you say reveals
Emotions I’ve left dormant
That I’m now starting to feel

I lay awake each night
Picturing you here next to me
Imagining you in my arms
You fit so perfectly

Wanting so much to feel your hair
Rub up against my face
To know your body’s warmth
As you lay wrapped in my embrace

To feel your breath, to kiss your neck,
To taste your soft sweet skin
To make you see you’ll never have
To be alone again

I know it isn’t much
But I will continue to say
I love you ****, just know
That I’ll prove it to you someday
