Hungered
Longing
for the day, you'd show your presence.
My
whole life, for you I have waited, and dreamt.
Thoughts
of all, I had hoped you would be.
The
caring you will show, the love I would see.
Lips
that are not afraid to speak.
How
your love for me, makes you weak.
When
under your spell, I am unable to stand.
Arms
strong enough, to take command.
Sharp
eyes that see down to my soul.
Healing
me and making me whole.
With
a dreamer’s beautiful mind.
Knowing
only loving words, so kind.
Strength
found from within.
My
heart, I knew, you would win.
The
broken pieces pulled together.
Safe
here with you, always and forever.
Have
hungered, for this kind of love.
Sent
to me, on the wings of a dove.
Will
hold on tight and never let go.
Happiness
I will finally know.
