I didn't know I loved you then.
Having pushed the idea from my head,
I was startled the other night
As I muttered the words
Not to anyone in particular
just a statement, stumbling from my lips
I didn't know, how I do now--
How you feel closer
Each time I hold your hand on my heart
Feeling your breath follow mine
And though the time I will love you will be short,
You leaving,
It is nice.
Knowing that I loved you
Knowing that you loved me
