The Love That's Never Been

This it what love does at its best andorst. I am shaking, way intense, as I feel the words

Each morning when I wake up
And I feel you not with me
I’d start to cry, not knowing why
Such a love that just won’t be
I lie in bed and think of you
And I hold you in my heart
And I feel the love that we have
And I feel every little part
As I rise to start my day
And you are in my mind
I cherish these feelings inside me
Of the love I’ll never find
And as I go through my every day
And I feel you as part of me
I wander through this dream of mine
And I crave your love to see
And I live each day as my first and last
For I feel you by my side
And I realize my dream come true
That I am not able to hide
And I see how much I need you
This illusion of a dream
And I hold on to this love you give
As I know it’s always been
And as I lay me down to sleep
Exhausted from all the things I feel
I love all these things I hold inside
A love that can’t be real
And I go to sleep and dream once more
Of this love I have, yet just won’t see
I thank my God you are in my life
Even as much as you can be
And I cherish you, as a part of me
As I reach to you again
And I smile through the tears I cry
At the love that’s never been.

Sometimes it's all we can do, to just hang on. Me too. Keep writing, friend, your words are beautiful and so are you.
