Don't you ever think
That when you are away
I do not have you in my mind
Cradled in my hands
Beating with my heart
Don't you ever think
That in those times of silence
That I am not stroking your
Beloved face
Curling up in your arms
Brushing your hair from your forehead
Slowly
Tenderly
Don't you ever think
That in busy times
I am not smiling
Humming a love song
Sweet and Slow
Don't you ever think
That I am not
Burrowing myself into
Your smell
Holding it up to me
Breathing it deep
Trying to lock it in
To my very cell structure
Don't you ever think
That I am not
Corralling these wild horses
Inside Me
Looking at the clock
Counting the minutes
The slowly grinding seconds
Until I hear your voice
Don't you ever think
I do not thrill to the words
'I love you'
Don't you ever think
That I do not picture myself
Walking beside you with your
Hand in mine
My face tilted up for a kiss
Don't you ever think
I am not concerned
I do not care
I am not interested
All that I am is..
So in love with you
I placed myself in
Your hands
To keep me safe
Keep me warm
Don't you ever think
I do not cherish you
Put you above all other men
Don't you ever think
That this is something passing
This is no fancy
No will-o-wisp
This is real
This is what lasts
This is what is true
This is Me, and this is You
