I want to tell you that I love you
How much you mean to me
I love you more than words can say
If only you could see
You came to me and set me free

When you came in my life
you lit up my heart
Like a match lights up fire
I think about the way you are
I can’t even stop for a while

You gave me love
What more can I say
I love you back
But I threw that chance away

This thing that clings to me
Will never leave
It will be in me forever
It’s a deep buried treasure

I try to dig it up
To let it depart my soul
but something keeps it in
It’s not of my control

Every time I see you
I fall in love again
I love all that you do
I just can’t let you go

I cry for I know soon
I need to let you go
I won’t get to see you
As much as I do now

I’m sorry, I’m so sorry
You may not care no more
But to me you matter truly
Still, and forever more

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."
