Painting My Picture

In my mind I paint a picture,
One of only you and me,
Pink, mauve, tender peach, and strawberry,
Hoping that someday you will see.

Very alive and aware,
I think about my feelings,
Just waiting for tomorrow,
And what new surprises it brings.

Looking into my picture,
I hope you will see,
How much love I have for you,
And how much you mean to me.

I will see this picture every day,
And in my mind I will watch it grow,
maybe if you look carefully,
It will show you all you want to know.

There are days when I'm afraid,
And I'm not sure what to do,
I know you will always be there,
I can count on you.

Wanting you with me,
Every day and night,
Wishing you were here,
To hold me tight.

The picture in my head,
Changes shape every day,
Sometimes its just letting me know,
That you are okay.

With this picture,
I will show you my dreams,
Soon enough you will know,
What my love truly means.

Unlike this poem,
Which is coming to an end,
As I paint my picture,
My heart is forever taken...by my best friend.

*Please never leave me, I just want you to know how much I love you*
