Deborah Cromer - Miss You

Up into the light, from the deepest of dark
I have emerged above with a single spark
Glowing I grow and continue to shine
Stronger I live, wishing you were still mine

Venturing everyday along reality's twisted path
Harsh and painful is lonliness's wrath
I have survived without you for the longest time
Held together in pieces, by fragments of rhyme

I search in all places for a glimpse of your face
I feel I am losing in this 'finding you' race
Daily I pray in different, honoring and loyal ways
Looking, searching and traveling in this 'without you' maze

How can I survive one more second of truly missing you
Outside I present myself as colorful, but inside I am so blue
Strong and courageous I go on, always reaching for the light
With demons and monsters I continously have to fight

I battle emotions and I am at war with my thoughts
How can I ever forget or ignore: little-bit, little-bit, lots...
