I knew it from the moment you kissed me.
From the second our lips touched.
The look in your eyes just before you leaned in
told me every thing I needed to know.

The tender sigh that escaped in a breath.
Your arms, so strong that enveloped me.
Even the way you held me was your betrayer.
The urgency to hold me close.

Yes my sweet love, I knew it....
I knew that this incredible kiss would be our last.
I knew the time had come to stop our lovely game of pretend.
I was not your forever girl....and it was time to go.

So....we parted ways.
I went my way, you followed your road.
Where its led you, I haven't a clue.
I was only to know where you'd been.

I'll keep the memories shared.
I'll cherish that last lovely kiss.
I won't however dwell on what could've been.
That's not my style.

Any way....hope you're well.

I know you'll never know exactly what you've done for me.
You'll never know the light you lit inside.
You were simply being you,
And yet, you made me better.

With every smile you lit my world.
With every witty remark you made me laugh,
And through this laughter, I found my way.
Out of the darkness....I found the sun.

I know you'll never know exactly what you mean to me.
You'll never know the important role you played.
You were simply being you,
And yet, you gave me hope.

With your charming ways, you won me over.
With your beautiful heart, you made me fall in love,
And through this love, I found my strength.
Overcoming fear....I could stand alone.

You'll never know you were my strength.
You'll never know you were my light.
You'll never know you gave me hope and made me better.
I know you'll never know....but I do.

I know you did so much, by simply being you.

Oh, that I could make you feel what's in my heart.
I wish you could feel how much I love you.
That I could show you how much you mean to me,
and leave you without a shadow of a doubt how
much that is.

To some how articulate how important you are.
You...my story.....my reason......
for living, laughing, crying, breathing...being.
My true north....my truth.

I wish you could truly feel my love.
That all I had to do is hold you, kiss you,
look into your eyes and you would know.
That I completely, absolutely, irrevocably love you.

With all that I am....all that I was....all I'll ever be....
I love you.
That is my wish.
Oh!  If only you could feel what's in my heart!

You left me
You lied
You broke my heart
I cried

You left me
You lied
You used me
I cried

You left me
You lied
All alone
I cried

You left me
You lied
Said you'd return
I waited and cried

You left me
You lied
My tears slowed
My eyes dried

You left me
You lied
I'm okay
Still alive

I'll deal with the loneliness
I'll suffer the pain
For you to have sunshine
I'll live with the rain

I'll laugh when you're happy
I'll cry when you're sad
When you suffer injustice
I'll scream when you're mad

I'll quietly love you
I'll stay by your side
I'll play the best friend
My true feelings I'll hide

As long as you're smiling
There's not much I won't give
I'm here to protect you
As long as I live

— The End —
