This lonely road is lonelier yet,
Knowing you're not here.
But my heart holds no regret,
Holds no tormenting fear.
I feel so very much at ease,
You're like a long-known friend.
Desire's here, don't want it to cease,
Only what the Lord wills to end.
If I could, I'd parade my heart,
Because it cares for you.
May these feelings never part,
May they only be more true.
Seas are blue, but not me,
My soul's a rising sun.
Like an eagle, I feel so free,
Brave enough to be undone.
He has sent and taught this fool,
In a one small of frame.
This lesson I've learned is my jewel
In my heart to remain.

Beautiful!
What lovely & loving words you've penned here. They bring a warmth to my heart & fill me!
Words like this make me wish I weren't alone & had a man around who had thoughts like this for me! 
I can always dream & pray for that to happen. In the meantime it's nice to know that a man can write like this! 
As always, perfect timing & rhyming! I particularly like the way you end this:
Like an eagle, I feel so free,
Brave enough to be undone.
He has sent and taught this fool,
In a one small of frame.
This lesson I've learned is my jewel
In my heart to remain.
Bravo dear one! All the best in the contest. This is a winner to me!
