As I sit here alone pondering my life

and wondering which path I should take

I anxiously await your arrival to me

and dream of the love we will make

Longing for a companion, a soul-mate and friend

one with whom to share my days

I can’t stop but feeling so helpless at times

and all of my thoughts turn to haze

The joy and excitement that runs through my being

so very quickly becomes immense fear

And though I can’t explain exactly how this can be

I so much wish that you were already here

So let’s try to dispel our doubts and insecurities

for the future is there to embrace

For I love you, you know, and can’t wait to hold you

to touch and kiss your beautiful face
