He Is

From Oct. 9, 2007:

He's changed my world,
Not my dreams.
He protects me and keeps me safe,
but doesn't suffocate me.
He holds me when I cry,
But he's never been the reason my tears fall.

I am his love, his one and only desire,
And I've never given him a reason to love me any less.
I feel his fingertips across my skin even when he's not there,
But I've never felt his hand across my cheek - and I know I never will.
He loves the snow; embraces my enthusiasm for winter.
He sings so badly that the song becomes my favorite one of all.

He loves my taste in music,
And knows to let me pick the station.
He just wants to be with me;
And all we need to get us through is each other.
He erases every doubt, every worry, every fear,
We live like lovers do - we can lose ourselves for days.

So why am I alone when night falls?
Because I'm in love with someone who doesn't exist.
