Love Poem: By My Side

By My Side

When I wake and seem alone 
In the quiet breath of morn, 
To the sun that sees me rise 
As the day begins to dawn, 
There is company I keep 
With a love that never died, 
I can feel your presence close, 
You are always by my side. 

When I walk an empty street 
As the night begins to fall, 
I inhale the evening air, 
Watching shadows creep and crawl, 
There is nothing more I need 
For my life is satisfied 
And I know that you are there, 
You are always by my side. 

When I lay me down to sleep 
And the bells of midnight chime, 
I can sense that you are near, 
I can feel your hand in mine; 
Death is but another state, 
Love can never be denied, 
You are always here with me, 
You are always by my side.
