I Wait for You Everyday. . .

I wait for you every day..
For a sign, a smile, a word..
A chance to be a part of you..
To matter to you..to exist for you..

I wait for you everyday..
Counting seconds into days..
Knowing that it's a mirage..
Still hoping against hope..that you will come one day

I wait for you every day..
As your mere memory makes my day..
I believe my heart stirs for a reason
My being resonates with the idea of you..

I wait for you everyday..
In the gathering gloom
For a torch of brightness..
In the dark night that follows

I wait for you everyday..
And paint a picture of you in the mind's eye
Where you are timeless..perfect..
An embodiment of my reason to stay alive..

I wait for you everyday...
Gathering courage to catch your eye..
Fruitlessly struggling with my unreasonable ego..
To let down my guard..to reach out..

I wait for you everyday..
To see you and be reassured
That angels do still walk the earth
That it's all worthwhile after all..

I wait for you everyday...
To get in touch with my only constant..
In this whirlwind of change..
As nothing but you make sense..

I wait for you everyday..
With a new verse like this one..
Which you make me write..
To soothe my aching heart with words..

I wait for you everyday...
Out of habit now..
Believing that to reach out to you would be a mistake..
Thinking it would destroy the perfect idea of you..

I wait for you everyday...
