By Milena Marques-Zachariah I see you wherever there’s lifeIn all things that in nature be In every face, in every smile, There’s never a time you’re not with me. I want you every single minute The start and end of each new day The break of dawn, the touch of dusk In every little tiny way I feel you in every moment In every single breath I take In all those restless, tossing hours, When I’m asleep and when I’m awake. I hold you close in every pore In places out and places in In every recess of my brain and every vein under my skin You are always a part of me Yesterday, today and tomorrow When things are up and life is down In every joy and every sorrow I cherish you for the love you show In every caress and gentle touch Every comforting word and look Oh, I love you so very much.
