Missing You

As the plains miss the rain

And bumblebees miss their flower

There's not a moment you're not on my mind

Regardless of the hour

While running through that meadow of memories

To breathe your air my lungs do yearn

In that place where time is no concern

My heart for you constantly burns, because

I miss you

Whether bathed in autumn sunshine or winter moonlight

No other vision brings more delight

The warmth of your gaze, the touch of your lips

Bittersweet now, yet nourishing still

All the fonder memories before they slip

To be with you my body and soul yearn

In that place where time is no concern

My heart for you ceaselessly burns, because

I love you.
