Dear Love
You know very well how much you mean to me
And how much I love you
But I must say this, for the betterment of us…
Ever since the day that I met you, I know that I would fall in love with you
No doubts, I was very sure of it
At first, I thought you would just be like everybody else:
You would be there, then grow tired of me, and leave
But you proved me wrong… I was wrong…
You didn’t leave me, even when I tried to push you away
You stayed, you beared with me
And I’m very happy and thankful for that…
I didn’t believe in forever, for forever is just a promise meant to be broken
But you made me believe in it, you made me realize
That forever is not a promise meant to be broken
But a promise meant to be proved… to be proved by the person you love… by you
You gave me forever just by the presence of you
Just your presence was enough for me
Enough for me to fall helplessly in love with you
I was afraid, but I became courageous for you
For you were my dream, a dream that I want to become true
And now here we are, a dream come true
No, we’re not a dream anymore, but a reality
Souls that have emerged to one
A living proof of forever…
But we must end this
This lovely solitude of us
This concept of forever with you
For the concept of us is just for a short time
For the idea of you and I, is, but a sweet candy:
Slowly melting and drifting away…
My love, I hope you understand me
I’m doing this for you, to lessen the pain
The pain that I will bring to you after some time
For I will be gone for a very long time
And you will long for my presence, for my touch
But I will wait for you, no matter how long it will take
I will wait for you… I promise, I will
And if we meet again, I’m sure we’ll be happy together
Together in the paradise we both longed for
Where we can be together… forever
And say our “I love you” ‘s endlessly
