A Poem by Becky
"

Hmmm...

"

 I need you,

So much more than I need even the air I breathe.

What I feel for you is more than love.

There's a piece of me in you,

And my very existence depends on that piece.

I've always needed you.

Since the beginning of time.

I was truly made only for you.

And you were made only for me.

When we touch,

The universe,

And all the cosmos,

Are aligned for that perfect blissful moment.

Whenever you're gone,

I feel like there's a gaping hole in me,

That everyone can see.

Sometimes this dire need for you is maddening.

Sometimes I can think of nothing else.

But then when we're together,

It's all worth it.

You are my life.

You are my everything.

And it sounds silly, 

Maybe even irrational.

But I've always been silly,

And never sensible.

I can go without you,

The same way my body can go without water.

I can't.

With everything in me,

You must know I love you, 

Need you,

Cherish you above all else.

You are the pinnacle of everything I know to be true.

Everything I am or ever could be,

Centers only around you.
