Sidebar to the Audience

I feel kind of awkward putting this on a blog but I'm going to anyways. Diana and I's four month anniversary is coming up like next week and I have no idea what to do. Should I get her something? Should I take her out somewhere? I mean, that is the same day she gets back from Lebanon so I dont know what to do. Knowing myself like I do, I will probably end up writing her a nice poem and getting her a card, though I have thought about getting her something simple yet meaningful. Just a matter of getting it is the problem. Just wondering if the audience has any suggestions on the matter. Not that I will listen to all of them, but I might. Just looking for a little help. To end, I'm going to write a poem just for her to read when she gets back.

Here I lay on my bed,
While you fly off to parts unknown,
Of all the places I've been,
I've never been where you've gone,

So here I lay on my bed,
Rolling over in between commercials,
To stare at the spot where you once lay,
The special spot where you graced my bed,

So here I lay on my bed,
Wrestling in the background,
Remembering that we would watch it and laugh,
Point at the funny men in their underwear,

So here I lay on my bed,
Eyes shut,
Imagining you are here,
Lying next to me,

So here I lay on my bed,
I can feel your body next to mine,
Your arms around my chest,
And you head upon my shoulder,

So here I lay on my bed,
Missing you so dearly,
As you are not around to be with,
Oh how I miss you darling,

So here I lay on my bed,
Surrounded by insolence and stupidity,
Waiting for your return,
From a place I've never been,

I hope you are better,
Not sick nor sad,
Just know that waiting here,
In my bed,

Is he who loves you,
Eternally.
