Holding Pattern # 1

You are my first thought when I wake
And my last thought before sleep
With the in between time waiting
For you to fill the lonely void

Is it so very wrong to want you
To miss you always and need you
Is there something better, dear heart
Something I can't give that you need

It isn't easy to forget
The painful lessons of the past
But start over now, this minute
And get it right just this once

And I will keep you from falling
Farther than you can bear alone
Just as you will never let me
Fail to remember why I love you
