I Love Her
© copyright 1996, John L. Batzer, Jr.

I can't think,
I can't talk,
I can't even walk straight
Without her here by me.

I just long
To see her face,
To hold her close in my arms,
To kiss her lips, passionately.

Yet I can't see
What is not there,
And no matter how much I wish
I must trust my memory.

I must remember
How things were
When last we were together
And how I felt then.

It's a feeling,
So completely wild
So unbelievably addicting
That I want to feel it forever.

Until I have her
Sitting close to my heart,
Once again, like we always were
I must dream on 'til tomorrow.

Life has few truths
And even fewer answers
But there is one thing that is certain,
And that is that I love her!
