In a single bed I cannot imagine,
I cannot dream or fantasize
What it’s like lying next to you.
In my queen sized bed,
There’s room for two.
A side for me
A side for you.
Having room for only one
Can never compare to
The feeling of security, of comfort
Or love when I’m lying next to you.
Your presence in my atmosphere
Is welcoming and inviting.
Embraced by your aura
It made me smile as
I thought to myself all the while,
I can get used to this again.
It’s like the puzzle piece
That’s been missing and has
Finally come to be fitted in its proper place.
A sense of completion, if you will.
Praisingly I sigh as your embrace
Comforts me and I can safely
Drift off to sleep knowing
You’re next to me.
I can only hope that mutual feelings
Within you are present in each moment
You’re lying next to me as they
Are ever present in me as when
I’m lying next to you.
