The Other Part of Me


When I'm without you, the sun doesn't shine as bright.

When I'm without you, the clouds are dark and foreboding.

When I'm without you, the birds don't sing as sweet.

When I'm without you, the walls close in around me.

Like a bird in a small cage.

When I'm without you, in the depths of my hell, whispering your name substains me.

but, when I'm with you, I have the strength to move mountains.

When I'm with you, I can withstand anything and everything. 

When I'm with you, your smile warms my very soul.

When I'm with you, the angels sing your name.

Like a sweet melody flowing through the air.

When I'm with you, I fall in love all over again with you as the man of my dreams.

So, forever stay with me until our hearts can no longer withstand our old age.
