Missing You

4/25/42

Darling I am lost and all alone
Without your presence near;
Daily to myself I intone
Your name to bring me cheer.

I miss you smile, you hand and touch;
No one else can contribute so much
Towards my well being and happiness;
Without you I am in a sea of loneliness.

In a mental vision I see your face
With well groomed hair set in place;
In your eyes there's a twinkle and a shine,
They speak, "Sweetheart, you are mine".

There's a gnawing at my heart;
It's almost tearing apart;
I long for you in every way;
I need you by my side every day.

Daily it is my fervent prayer
That we soon again may share
The love affair we knew
Before I was called away from you.
