BITTER SWEET

Love

A feeling

All we have
All we hold
All we dream to have

Happiness

A feeling

All we searched for
Longed to have
To hold
Forever
Never
To let go

I had
I lost
I found
All of this in you

A comfort
A feeling
Freedom
All of this in you

Tonight
I shed my tears
Crystal clear
For you

My love for you ran dry with my eyes
To cleanse the pain my eyes beheld
All of this
For you

You became my everything
You took
Only to leave
With three words

I Love You

Tonight
I shed my tears
I shed them all for you
For all we could have had
And all we could have been?

As the numbness evades my lips?
Evading my fingertips?
I realize?
I have no regrets

Only you
