Elusive Reality

Where are you when I need to look
into the eyes I love?
Where are you when I need to talk
Of things I'm thinking of?
Where is the hand I need to hold
The lips I need to kiss
Where are you when I need you now
To share a night like this?
The future seems to take so long
To get us to our day.
The hours never hurry by
To quickly show our way.
Why can't you hold me in your arms
And never let me go?
I've waited half my life to find you,
And just wanted you to know!
