I Miss You

by Daniel Jimenez   Oct 13, 2005


It's a cold frosty night
and I sit alone waiting for you.
My thoughts keep me company
as my loneliness begins to stew.

I made you a cup of hot tea
because I know you'll come home beat
I even cleared a place for you on the bed
so I could massage your tired tired feet.

I hate being away from you like this,
I miss you much I can not lie.
I crave you in my arms again
my precious Laura Lai.

I wanted tonight to be romantic
so I broke the scented candles out.
They've been burning for you for awhile,
most have already snuffed and fizzled out.

The dinner I made with love,
is now on the stove growing old.
The flame of romance I was keeping lit
has been smothered by a night so cold.

The roses are now slowly wilting
and the wine has grown stale.
I tried my best to give you the best
but I, again, have failed...

I put our songs on the stereo,
they've been playing for God knows how long,
memories of my Laura Lai
flood back with each passing song.

I miss you so much my love
my heart is breaking over you,
my eyes are swelling up with tears.
This romance it seems is through.

Where are you Laura?!
I need you here with me!
I wanted this to be perfect
without flaw or discrepancy.

You may not know this I am sure
but your company soothes my soul
just your presence when you're with me
makes me feel complete and whole.

I miss you...

When I whisper out your name
into the nights cold bitter air
my breathe is chilled like a tiny cloud
then disappears as if it was never there.
