There will come a time in life I will think back and wonder where you are and if you're well- I will flip through the pages of my memories, it's just too great a tale to tell. I know this because I know I can't stay here too much longer, we live our lives too much apart, and our time together doesn't make us stronger. But I love you all the same, like I will for many years to come, you're not mine, I've no right to you and the guilt has left me numb. God let me have you for awhile, when I needed you to make it through, greed is something He doesn't like, I couldn't get enough of you. And then it came to this. It became a thing I didn't miss. I built up a certain resistance and now I can love you from a distance... I will love you for all my years and always wonder how you are, through tears. |

There is some very ‘real’, powerful, interesting ‘food for careful thought’ in this ‘write’!...for example: “...I can't stay here too much longer, we live our lives too much apart, and our time together doesn't make us stronger.” and: “I love you all the same, ...I will for many years to come, you're not mine, I've no right to you and the guilt has left me numb.” serious applause!! |
