A minutes like an hour

an hour like a day

a week is like a lifetime

while you are away.


 

I count each single heartbeat

I feeel each pulsing vein

time passes oh so slowly

until we meet again.


 

I long to have you near me

to cuddle and to kiss

just sitting close together

is my idea of bliss.


 

I try so hard to bear it

laugh and enjoy each day

but it's getting harder
while you are away.
