Once Again

Here I am again on this nights eve
Wishing so hard you were here with me
And from this moment we would never leave
But for now all I have are these words
And there it is my heart being worn on my sleeve
It's laying there trying so very hard not to bleed
With each syllable another drop falls down
The agony is all around
No matter what I'm needing to get done
Thoughts of you are never far away
The memory of you don't stray
Right with me that's where it always stays
No matter how much I cry over you
I'm never cried out for you
No matter how much I pray to have you near
You are still not here
The more the days drag on by
The worse I seem to get
Left here for dead to wonder why
Do I have all this remembrance to sort
I realize life is way to short
And you need to place that bet
The moments of my past are very near and dear to my heart
And I still believe whole heartingly we should've never been torn apart
But why do these thoughts consume me
I love you so much can't you see
And it hurts so bad my heart longs to be free
Free of the hurt but yet I long for your love
Needing to hold you so close
You are to me the one sent from up above
My pen flows across this paper with ease
Yet to speak these words aloud to you
Well that would bring me to my knees
For awhile now and until my time comes my pain will not end
It will continue to haunt me unless that is...
...I can hold you forever once again
