Center of My UniverseBy Paul Diesman
I stopped a while to think today.
I needed to stop and take a look in the mirror.
Who is this man before me?
It looks like a man I once knew.
But that man was independent and needed noone.
He looked a lot like me.
I began to wonder about how much I depend on you.
Life seems unlivable without you by my side.
Every waking moment I find myself longing to be with you
Sleep is impossible without you lying next to me.
Whatever I do in life, I find a way to make you part of it.
Anger falls over me.
Where is the man I once knew, who could conquer the world by himself?
And now I can barely manage a day without you!
I try to push my thoughts onto other subjects.
But my thoughts keep drifting back to you.
Like the planets revolving around the sun,
Bound together by some invisible force
That has linked them together for eternity.
The anger has vanished, leaving me with a sigh of relief.
Things seem so much clearer now.
Than man is still here. He just has a partner now.
Why should I fight the force that draws me back to you?
I am happy now.
I will gladly accept my realization.
I discovered something special just now.
I now know, you are the center of my universe.
