i want to be happy

   i truly do

but when i close my eyes

   all i can see is you

i see your beautiful eyes

   and your silly, silly grin

i see your crooked nose

   and the scruffy hair upon your chin

if my mind is running

   and my brain begins to spin

i can feel and smell you

   sweetly upon my skin

then memories they flood me

   the whispers, kisses, and such

causing sadness to drowned me 

   in an all consuming rush

you laid your head
    against my chest
Slid your arms
    around my waste

Squeezed your eyes tightly shut
     exhaled a sigh of relief
I felt the events of your day
     dissipate as you cuddled into me
