ANOTHER SAD LOVE SONG

It's just another sad love song
that I hear droning on in the background
It brings back memories, so fresh, of what happened
Of what was, what we had, what should have been

All I feel is regret
As I look off into the starlit sky
The tears flow freely down my cheeks
but I do not feel their voyage
Where did I go wrong?
How could I give up the most precious gift of all?
I was scared, of what I felt
I was tired, of being patient and having to fight

Though as I reminisce
the same old sad love song playing over in my head,
upon the window sill with my face pressed against the glass,
I realize that all I want is you back in my life,
wanting your arms around me,
wanting the warmth of your body against my skin

I would give anything just to have a moment with you
Anything just to hear your voice whispering sweet nothings into my ear
Anything just to feel your lips on mine, on my skin
Anything just to feel your touch sending shivers up my spine
Anything ... anything just to be with you.

As I hear the sad love song continue on its track
I smile faintly as I look into the nothingness
I will have you back someday,
I promise to the trees, the world, the universe
... but most importantly, myself
I will be yours for eternity and a day
for true love never does end;
nothing can destroy it
be it time, distance, hardships

As I listen to the same old love song
my feelings expressed with it's lyrics
I realize that it is not so sad afterall
when I realize that I can be patient ...
...for just a bit longer ...
long enough so that I can be with you again.
