enough

i used to want all of you
days nights the time in between
then I watched you disappear below me
like a whisper in the wind
and you were gone

i used to want more
more time more touch
more knowing
it was always too short
i was always leaving

i used to think i could fix it
i could hold every moment in a life
that knowing every moment
would keep me safe

i wanted to to crawl inside you
never leave - that it would continue
I thought i could have that
and then you left

it was never enough
our moments of laughter hugs smiles
i was always wanting more
never knowing what was missing
and then it was over

a small voice was there beside me
not quite heard all along
sending music and love
telling me not to take it so seriously
holding out hope of a different kind
and suddenly i saw

it could be enough

sometimes i want more
more time, more laughter, more freedom
your presence fills me like no other
and when you're here I am complete

you're a part of me - you touch me
in ways i do not understand
it is a very small part of you
but the part i have is enough

one day i will have more
i believe this to be true
that patience, caring and
waiting will be rewarded

you will come to me
i will find my way to you
we will build a different life
with the pieces that we have given
time will heal us both

and it will be enough
