It's been some time since we had our first lunch
I knew we'd be lovers, it was more than a hunch
From the second you walked through the door
My heart skipped a beat, you're who I adore
...

I miss you more than words can say
No longer will I beg you or ask you to stay
Harsh words echo and ring in my ear
Time they say will make my sadness disappear
...

Life is full of choices we make
A delicate balance between give and take
Many defining moments shape the person we become
It has nothing to do with where we come from
...

Lying awake as the dark is fading
Thoughts spinning through the mind keep it racing
Feeling alone like someone lost at sea
Heavy thoughts crashing down on me
...

Life is a roller coaster of lows and highs
My life forever changed the day I looked into your eyes
I remember clearly our very first date
It was then I saw in you, my one and only soul mate
...

I lay on my bed and stare at the ceiling
Wishing I could shake this awful feeling
My mind races with the thoughts in my head
Does anyone care if I'm alive or I'm dead?
...

Why does life have to be so unfair?
It's a curse to us who do nothing but care
Why does it have to be so tough?
Our short times together are never enough
...

You're in my every thought and prayer
All things with you I want to share
In dark times and in light
Everything with you just seems right
...

Nothing on earth can change how I feel
My love for you, I know this to be real
We've been tried, tested and brought to our knees
How often I have screamed out and cried out my pleas
...

Thinking of all the things we've shared
Knowing how deeply each of us has cared
Our time spent together made me glad
To see you happy and not so sad
...

A beautiful song the sound of love
Lifting your heart like the wings of a dove
Thinking of dreams of long ago
In a place where lovers hearts dare to go
...

Every time I have to drive away
Tears stream from my eyes, I want to stay
I have to trust things will work out
It's hard to not be filled with doubt
...

Does strength come from our greatest fears?
Building us up from our tears?
One magical star in the evening sky
Holds its own where angels fly
...

Sometimes you can't see what's staring you in the face
It becomes more clear when you retreat to another place
Don't be scared of something you've always wanted
Denying your heart will only leave you feeling haunted
...

Once in this life we're given the greatest treasure
A love so pure, beyond what one can possibly measure
Our lives continually change, , in the blink of an eye
The gift of love is a feeling you can't deny
...

I feel so lost on the brink of desperation
Inside feeling full of sadness and frustration
Waiting on the edge of the unknown
Once again feeling so very alone
...

Often, I sit and think of the years that have passed by
So much joy and happiness has been shared by you and I
You have a smile that lights up my life, beyond what can compare
I hope you know how much I'm here and how much I truly care
...

Six years it's been since you captured my heart
So many changes except my love, which will never depart
My promises to you I'll never change
Without you in my life, everything would feel so strange
...

Reflections pass through my minds eye
Lovely thoughts I have of you and I
Nothing in the world can quite compare
From your beautiful smile to the curl of your hair
...

I love you in the morning
And I love you at night
I love you when it's dark out
And in the brightest daylight
...
