Tiny bubbles of discontent
surround me,
because I feel as lonely as
a shark in the deep blue sea.
I miss you,
and I need you here with me.
Right now,
that can't be,
but each night,
I close my eyes
and dream,
then for a short while,
it will seem
that you're right here
smiling at me.
Yet come the dawn,
I open my eyes to find
that you're still so far away,
and again I pray for the day
that you'll be here to stay.
Until you return,
I'll continue to yearn
for you every day.
