As I lay myself down to sleep,
    an extreme lonliness tears my heart apart.

A day doesn't go by
    without a vision of you crossing my mind.

When I first met you
    I noticed your eyes full of kindness and warmth.

Your eyes radiating a gentle softness,
    your words full of charm and wit.

I pray to God that someday,
    I can hold you in my arms,
    feel your gentle heart
    beat against mine.

My face burns with tears
    as I know my prayers are in vain.

Such sorrow fills my heart
    when I remember we can never be.

Two kindred spirits so close,
    yet seperated by an uncrossable chasm.

And so I try oh so hard to move on,
    feeling incomplete and isolated,
    so very torn up inside
    waiting for the healing to begin.
