I'd rather have you with me......

My friend had once told me about this poem he read. I have tried since then, to get that poem online - but the effort's been futile [esp. as I know neither the title of the poem, nor the name of the poet :D] . I do not remember the lines exactly, but I remember the essence, and, it goes something like -
"Why is it, that when you are with me, I find myself unable to write anything,
but, when you are away, I fill pages and pages with writings of Love and Longing?
I'd rather have you with me and have my pages empty ."

One can easily agree with me when I say I echo this.

Echo! Echo!!

Here's a poet we have heard more often and much louder [:P]
When you are with me, I'm free
I'm careless, I believe
Above all the others we'll fly
This brings tears to my eyes
