Title: Missing You
Writer: Steve Oaks

Sometimes I can't figure out what else to say,
It can be so hard when you're so far away,
So I write you letters and poems to express what I feel,
To show you that, my heart has been hooked and its on your reel

Melissa I know my poems probably get boring,
All I can say is that its you I am adoring,
There are things when you are around that I can do,
To show just how much I love you.

But then I sit here all alone,
Feelings can be hard to describe over the phone,
My poems, my letters, my words can't show
Just how much your love has helped me grow.

You are so much more than my great lover,
It didn't take long for me to discover,
This person labeled as my best friend,
I pray, my life with her, I will spend.

So as you get off work or head off to sleep,
I remind you once more that my heart is yours to keep,
I am so happy to have left it in your soft embrace,
But know that until I can be there I am busy in a race.

To have and to hold,
To kiss and be told,
To grab you amidst the autumn sky,
And give thanx for my summers goodbye.
