Analysis of Lonely



It’s the longest we’ve been apart.
You’re very much in my heart.
I miss you so much.
I’d die for your touch.

It’s not easy, yet I know its
something I must do.
I can’t wait ‘til I am
back with you.

You’ve been through a lot,
but you’ve supported me, no matter what.
You have made me proud.
“I love you”, I will shout out loud.
When I return to you, it will be forever.
Wherever I go,
we will go together.
