Yes, I Need You

The sound of your voice,

Your fragile touch,

Your lingering sent,

They never leave my mind.

 

Mindless, unrelated jokes,

Careless mix up of words,

Horrible nicknames,

Yes, I need those.

 

Untimely bursts of laughter,

Sudden “I love you”s

Tight bear hugs,

Yes, I need those.

 

Late night talks,

No topic of conversation,

Long messages having no point,

Yes, I need those too.

 

Your insecurities,

Your worries and you’re sorry-s

Someone to set me at ease,

Yes, how can I live without these?

 

Someone to hold my soul together,

Look into my heart,

And read my mind,

How can I forget that?

 

Someone to keep my feet on the ground,

Wipe my tears,

And bring me around,

Yes, I need someone.

 

Someone to give me memories,

Moments cherished,

Forever and always, right?

Yes, I need them.

 

Someone to sing me to sleep,

One who’ll stand by me,

Understand me without words spoken,

Oh, I need those too.

 

Someone to care, someone to miss,

Someone who will show me bliss,

Always open is his door,

Yes, I need those.

 

Time, I need time,

Time to open up,

My own time to be understood.

Yes, I need time.

 

Trust me,

For my source of strength is you.

Your arms are my sweet escape.

Yes, I need that vacation.

 

Yes I need your smile, your funny faces,

Your remembrance, your acceptance,

Your flaws and your giggles,

Yes, and above all, I need your existence.
