LOVELY PAIN

What is this feeling?
It's physical pain
Eating me slowly from the inside
It won't stop until I see you again.

I never knew that
This physical pain
It's me missing you badly
It won't leave me until you're in my arms again.

I'm trying to shake it
My physical pain
It haunts my every waking hour
It won't go away until I kiss you again.

I'm strong, I endure it (for you)
Lovely emotional pain
Every beat of my heart counts down to a moment
It tells me we'll be together again.

MOMENTS

Like grains of sand slipping through my fingers
Moments come and go
Memories are all you have left
Imprints of reality left to hold.

Moments run into each other
Water flowing in a stream
Tendency is to let it pass
Never knowing what they mean.

But moments spent with you
These are most worthwhile
I learned to hold on
Not let it all pass me by.

If I could stop time
In these moments I hold dear
I'd be smart enough to cherish
Hold you, kiss you, keep you right here.

If I had to choose specific moments
I could treasure with gray hair
I'd take any spent with you
None can compare.

Moments come and go
Stop, rewind, play
Those spent with you I hold close to my heart
Until my dying day.
