Always and Forever.

Always and Forever:

Do you know what it is that
I feel in this old heart?
To be so close to you,
but really so far apart.

From morning, noon and night,
I think of you as each day will fleet and pass;
each waking minute and every
single second that we are apart.

Have you any idea how
much love for you
dwells and grows in my heart?
I have never said it, but I know
you knew it from the very start.

From the first time we met,
till this very day; I knew that
I would never love any other.
I have only room for you in this heart.

Unrequited is my love for you,
but you know just how I feel.
How much I worship and adore you,
even in my dreams when I'm asleep.

I shall wait for you an eternity,
even though we may never be
together, but I would rather die then
be without you each day in my thoughts and my dreams.

What more do you wish for me to say?
I love you, I loved you from the start,
I wish you could seem see deep into my heart.

Each night I welcome sleep,
as in dreams we are never apart.
You are truly mine then and
you show me that I am in your heart.

    This is much too close to my own situation and heart.I can relate to this as if I'd wrote it myself.It is so sad and beautiful.Words fail me.

    A wonderful write Bill. Written from the heart. Filled with love and passion. Just a couple of things...

    6th stanza, first line:
    "I shall wait for you an eternity"... I don't think you meant to put "you" in the middle of the line?

    7th stanza, last line
    "I wish you could seem see deep into my heart"... Did you mean to put seem? Or do you mean something else?

    A beautiful write, which I very much enjoyed.
