Keep me by your side,
I plea to you. I'll keep
carrying, all your crosses.
I'll lead you to our
own glory. I'll steal you away
from hell.I'll try to accomplish
this, if you believe in me. I'll
protect you, I'll be your only
shield. I'll convince, to just give
me an occasional kiss.I will not ask
for your caresses.I will not ask for
true love. Just to keep you closed to me,
and forever have your touch. If one
you walk away, just make sure that
you return. I will not ask you where
your been?, or to whom you gave my kiss?.
Nor will I mention it ever. As long, as
you give me an occasional kiss.

Most interesting question of this is..

"to whom did you give my kiss"

Very sad to think you only expect an occasional kiss when they should be so freely given with joy and love.

This may be the saddest thing you've ever written. (Here)

walker,

This is very bittersweet. I am betting you deserve more than an occasional kiss. Someone out there will reciprocate your love. Just have to find her. Good luck.
