As my heart yearns for you
About you I worry
When I don’t hear from you
My mind jumps to bad thoughts

For days I text you
For nights I agonize
No response
What have I done?
What’s wrong?

With your problems
I worry a lot
If something happens
Will I get a call?

I’m so afraid of losing you
So afraid that one day
One dreadful day
I’ll wake up and you’ll not be there

When I’m with you
I am happy
My world has meaning
At last
Through you

Frightened I become
When disappear you do
I worry so
That you have succumbed

From woe to woe
My mind does dance
As it tries to make sense
Of your silence

Are you dead?
Ignoring me?
Or frightfully
Gone down a dark path in your mind?

I love you
In love with you
I am
I can think of little
Nay, nothing
That thrills me more
Than trying to make you happy
Whole
Loved

Blessed I have become
In knowing you
In loving you
Thankful that you have I found

But still my mind
My psyche
My soul
Is pained by thoughts it engenders

To hold you
To love you
To keep you safe
My mind feels I have failed in this task

So along I plod
Worry in tow
Till that time when again
Your voice I will hear

For you worry will I carry
Within my heart, my mind, and my soul
Till my last breath exhales
Till my eyes do not see
I will always worry for thee
