On the hour
Most every day
I know you’re never
Far away
If only in thought
You’re still there
Someone I hold
So very dear
A loyal friend
Sent my way
Someone I think of
Night and day
True friends
Are rare and few
And I’m just so thankful
I have you

How do you do it
How do you send my senses into a tizzy
My heart starts racing
And my head becomes dizzy
How is it this happens
Every time I read what you’ve written
Such simple words
And I’m completely smitten
How do you cause this
These sensations of bliss
I get lost in the thought
Of your smoldering kiss
How enraptured am I
To feel all of these emotions
Saturated by your love
Amazed by your devotion
How blessed I am
By the treasure I’ve found in you
My heart fully appeased
By a love that is true

She was always there
Resting quietly in his mind
With her smiling face
So loving and kind
Every inch of his body sensed
Her genial existence
Provoked by images of her
He offered up no resistance
And after years of searching
He knew she was the one
The light in her eyes reminded him
Of a bright morning sun
There was no denying his feelings
He had finally found his queen
She’d been there all along
Though nonexistent she had seemed
Fate had eventually been kind
Considering his deepest desires
And he wondered what he had done
To finally be blessed with all he required

I see you in all there is
Your glory abundant in countless ways
And even when I feel so lost
You brighten up my darkest days
I’ve tried my whole life
To turn from the path you laid out for me
And on days like this I remember
You’re the only real truth that I can see

Be the light that I need
Be the air that I breathe
Be all that I can see
Whenever I forget to be me
