As I wake
Waking, I open my eyes
Breathing, I gasp for air
Standing, I lift myself
I look around at an empty room.
I see all but none.
Alone, I realize I am.
Awake, yet dreaming of…
Searching, I look at nothing
Thinking, I ponder of nothing
Knowing, I know nothing
I walk around and all I see is you not here.
I touch the sheets and I remember you beside me
I smell the pillows and your scent lingers still.
I look at the mirror and still see you beside me.
Wishing, I long for you.
Hoping, I pray for us.
Loving, only you I shall.
