Linger

by Luke Hicks   Jan 1, 2009


Know the pain I'm feeling is tearing me apart
But I will always think kindly of you in my heart

Know that I may have to build a wall or two
To protect the centre of my heart which will always be full of you

Never shed a tear or get upset due to me
Know that we found a true love that just wasn't meant to be

So please when you think of me just smile
Knowing you mended a broken soul, made my life worthwhile

I can never fully tell you what you have done for me
All I can say is thankyou for being you, and setting my beautiful self free

I've never known happiness like the short time we got to share
Know that I will always love you, know I will always care

We move on which will be heart breaking at first
Know you have shown me what life is all about, given me a thirst

Wherever I end up i know I will never feel quite this deeply or truly again
The connection we have is pure, unique and forever it will remain

So as we say our last goodbye
Know you will linger in my heart until the day I die

    This is a very touching , heartwrending poem . I loved it. Sometimes we can't be with the one we TRUELY love.. but they remain in our hearts forever. A sad, but beautifully written poem. Well done!
