You in Every Shade

I shut my eyes,

And there you are,

A radiant vision,

No matter the distance.

Your outline catches me,

In a way that's rare,

One of a kind,

There’s none other to compare.

With curves that captivate,

From your head down to your toes,

From your hips to your calves,

And the beauty of your nose.

Your light shines everywhere,

Inside and out it flows.

I long for your kiss;

My heart knows no woes.

Though I stand strong alone,

Each day is a test of will.

But in every dark moment,

Your voice guides me still.

I want you close by my side;

With open eyes or closed tight—

You’re the vision I hold dear—

The only one in my sight.
