My Heart


I questioned if you were reality,
My perfect match staring back at me. 
You pulled my world from dark to light,
And encompassed me in heartfelt delight. 
 
I have done nothing to deserve your love,
Your heart, your embrace, or anything thereof. 
I hope to never leave the warmth of your heart,
In spite of all the lonely days we spend apart. 
 
If only I could hold you close tonight, my dear,
I would trade the world to have you here. 
My heart aches for its other half,
I long for your smile, your warmth, your laugh. 
 
I wish you were in my arms, but my heart will do,
Tonight I will dream of no one but you. 
I cherish the few minutes we have together,
But in my heart, you'll remain forever.
