I wish I could show you what you look like to the outside world
I wish I could let you know how someone feels about you
How each word you write fills my insides with warmth
How you inspire me to use words that I would never touch before
Like love sick and awe
How before you I was jaded, and might still be
But you showed me a glimpse of light
A morsel of hope that there are real people still out there
Who see the world like I do
Who long for a companion, not only to lay beside, but to share their lives with
Even though I am without you, you have forever touched me
By not even touching me.
That is something that never happens
You are something that never happens
You are my once in a lifetime.

I hope you come back,
but I will carry you with me forever.
