My Lover, My Friend
Feelings of love overwhelm my heart
When I stop and think of you.
Thought we are almost always apart,
The emotion of love shines through.
Your sweet nature and loving ways
And acceptance of me for me
Will follow my heart all of my days,
Reflecting your love for all to see.
Although at times unreachable,
Your absence hard to bear,
You've shown me I am loveable.
Therefore, I haven't a care.
For when in my life you reappear,
Whether for length or brevity,
I know I have nothing to fear,
For I am loved unconditionally.
Your words are potent, your love strong.
My love for you stronger still.
To ignore the desire I've felt so long
Would be accomplished only against my will.
I hope these feelings never end,
For your love makes me whole.
You will always be My Lover, My Friend.
Ever absorbing my heart and soul.
