My Love

My Love

Did I ever show you my favourite place?

And did you ever notice the smile on my face.

When you came back to me, after you’d been away?

It was complete relief that you’d come back again.

If I ever hurt you deep inside

And you hid the tears I made you cry,

Then my lady I apologise;

But I hope you’ll know that I never lied.

And you’ll never know what you mean to me

And you’ll never know why I let you go

And you’ll never know why you must be set free;

From me, my love and all my sorrow.

True to you, even when feeling blue;

My silence only ever hid the truth.

Those things I couldn’t say to you;

For I feared you’d leave me, then what would I do?

When you held my hand I felt warm inside.

I’m complete when I have you at my side.

You’re the only one in whom I can confide,

But without you girl, my heart would surely die.

And you’ll never know what you mean to me

And you’ll never know why I let you go

And you’ll never know why you must be set free;

From me, my love and all my sorrow.

But now you’ve gone away, I’m a hollow boy;

My comfort blanket has been destroyed.

They’ve taken away my favourite toy.

Now the tears continue to fall like rain;

I can no longer feel any joy.

So I sit here staring at the wall,

With a lack of empathy for this world;

For my love is gone.  I can’t go on anymore.

So I’ll say goodbye to my one and only love.

We could have been so much more…
