No words I write can ever say how much I miss you every day.
As time goes by, loneliness grows, how I miss you nobody knows.
I think of you in silence, I often speak your name.
But all I have are memories and some photos in a frame.
No one knows my sorrow, no one sees me weep.
But the love I have for you, is in my heart to keep.
I never stopped loving you, and I’m sure I never will.
Deep within my heart you are with me still.
Heartaches in this world are many, but mine is surely worse than any.
My heart still aches as I whisper low.
Valerie, I need you and I miss you so.
The things we feel so deeply are often the hardest to say.
But I just can’t keep quiet anymore, so I’ll tell you anyway.
There is a place within my heart that no one else can fill.
I love you so, and I always will.
