Why

Why must it hurt to miss you so much,
longing the day I feel your touch.

Why does the day seem forever long,
but when you are with me in no time its gone.

Why does everything remind me of you,
because all it does is leave me lonely and blue.

Why does your smile bring such light,
then leave me missing you at night.

Why does holding you for an hour or two,
make me feel I have nothing to lose.

Why does running my hands through your hair,
make me forget about all of my cares.

Why is my life changed by your gaze,
from deep brown eyes that leave me amazed.

Why are you the first thing I think of every morning I rise,
and the last thing I think of before I sleep at night.

I will tell you why and its simple but true,
its simply because I'm in love with you.
