Not for a moment should you believe
that my heart or soul should concede.
Don’t think for second that time can heal
or that distance can change the way I feel.

Yes you may believe only what you see
in words from people other than me.
But, the truth I know and hold within
will live on through whether I lose or win.

Loving you only has become my fate
even though your feelings have turned to hate.
Though my love for you took too much time
it grew and matured just like wine

Yes, I’ve lost the chance at heaven’s gate,
and my love for you may be too late.
But in my heart alone it will live on
it will be there even when I’m gone

So think what you want
and believe what you will
But, know from your soul
that I love you still!

Painful emotions here, Blind Man.  It's never easy to let go, especially when you are not the one who wants to let go.  Sigh . . .

All writing comes
by the grace of God.

Somehow, these thoughts don't seem to come from a Blind Man after all...
