Close Your Eyes
By Michelle  Alcala

I can't  be with you  today
but if you close your eyes and think
I'll be besides you in the kitchen
wearing your shirt -- standing by the sink

I'll be with you in the bedroom
waiting quietly on your bed
Just close your eyes and think of me,
relive those memories in your head.

I'll stand by you in the bathroom,
an unlikely place to meet
I'll smile at you so playfully
as I watch you brush your teeth

I'll be your light in the darkness,
shining steady through and through
You only have to watch it glow
to know I think of you.

I'll be the music that you listen to,
I'll be there in every song
I'll laugh with you and sing with you,
and comfort you when your day's gone wrong.

I'll be the wind that whispers softly in your ear
Honey I love you, close your eyes and feel me there
I'll be that warm embrace
and the tender touch on your face.

I'll be the clock gently ticking,
reminding you of the times
We've shut the rest of the world outside
we're in our world .... yours and mine.

I'll be the moon as it dances
on the water cold and still
For I have loved you always
and I know I always will.

Though you may not see me physically
as you live your life today
Just close your eyes and think of me
I will not be far away
