My mistake

I entered the armed services,

while you were still around.

my mother informed me later,

that you had left town,

i am so in love with you.

something that you didn't know,

when i got to bed at night,

i wondered where did you go.

five years has gone by now,

and my love is still strong.

somebody find him please,

and ask him to come back home.

sitting outside one day talking to my friends, Larry,

he said the guy you are in love with.

has recently gotten married,

i felt to my knees with tears in my eyes.

i ask god why me, as i looked to the skies,

i wish you all the happiness,

in everything you do,

my mistake is not telling you, how much

I LOVE YOU............
