IT MATTERS.

I keep thinking of you.

And if I were to come to terms with the fact

that I cannot do without you for any length of time,

I would have flown back home on the first night,

The excuse to go away for my career is almost out of sight,

Because now all I want is you by my side

To fly away together to our island we had planned on the 

first night we met,

Those long wishful talks I will never forget,

How paradise was for a moment, spent,

Making me realize I regret

going away is a painful fret,

Knowing we are most important together is my content,

And everything else is a secondary step.

I feel it more when the chips are down,

That there are more important things in life than a 

successful clown,

You may have many who care how you live and they'll 

be always around,

But I only have you, to keep my feet on the ground.

When you go on your ventures and holidays,

I can sit at home, wait for you to phone and pray,

Knowing you'll return one day,

But when I leave you behind, 

It's a different story that shines,

Because I need you around me all the time,

You're the kind of person one dare not leave outside,

so precious and unique to be left hanging too long a time,

For the tearing pain of missing you, could never leave

my heart and mind,

That's something I cherish, that keeps me in touch with you 

in every pulse of my daily life.
