What I Miss About You

I miss your smile in the morning; it always lit up the day.

I miss the way you would sing to me; I miss hearing you pray.

I miss us always holding hands; the way we did right from the start.

For I always knew when I was holding you; that you had my heart.

Oh how I miss your voice as it came to me in that child like way.

But I think that what I miss the most is when you would hold me close to pray.

Oh baby, I miss so much, I miss your eyes, the smell of your skin.

I miss our life together and I wish that it never had to end.

We had so many dreams both you and me.

We dreamed of retiring and living by the sea.

We dreamed of long walks across the soft white sand.

Yet now I only dream in the darkness of a lonesome land.

Leah…I needed to feel you so much this very night.

I found your perfume and sprayed our covers till they were misty white.

I miss you so much baby, I miss you both night and day.

Oh how I wish that I could once again hear you when you would for me pray.

Now I have no one in person…I never in all our years together made any close friends.

For I had you and you were all I needed; now this broken heart shall never mend.

I miss you so much…I think that I am going insane.

Why can’t I let you go…oh why can’t I lose this terrible pain?

I so tired baby…I am just so tired…but my sleep has been stolen.

And I walk around all the day with eyes red and swollen.

Oh how I miss the other half of me which was you.

I miss you so much and I know not what else to do.
