Always

a thousand wishes

I say I don’t care 

But still check to see 

If you respond  

 

I say things that I don’t mean 

And cant admit that they're wrong 

But I'll always come back to you 

 

I always make a point to say I love you 

At least once a day 

So you never have to wonder 

Even for one day 

 

I always think of you 

As a place I belong 

Not a temporary feeling  

Or love 

 

I always think of you  

As a home 

Not some girl I want to live with 

 

I always love you but I never really 

Let it sink in 

Until I say the wrong thing 

Look at me so cocky 

Like I have a reason to be smug 

Like im not the girl 

That sweeps all her emotions 

Under the rug 

 

Look at me, nothing to be proud of  

I'm ashamed that I could blame 

Me but dump this pain on you 

I'm ashamed I could say I'm through with you 

 

I always say things I don’t mean 

Except when I tell you I love you 

That’s the only time 

I can be sure 

I'm not lying... 

So I guess the conclusion is 

I do, and I will always love you

    Love turns us upside down, inside out, it tugs, it pushes, but it can hold us tight and give us refuge. Beautifully expressed dear friend.
