The depth of my love Nothing compares The thought of losing you Causes such a scare Sometimes I feel like I am too close Sometimes not close enough I try to understand But sometimes it's tough The times we're alone Holding each other tight I hold close to my heart And the thoughts fill me with light I love the feeling it gives me I wish I could make it last longer But sometimes I can't And the anger takes over Each time the phone rings Each time a letter comes Each time I witness the kind words and hugs It tears me apart Yet only in my mind To have to see and hear this Time after time I feel as if I am being tested How much can she take This heart can't take too much It is already cracked and about to break Each time this happens The anger grows stronger I really don't think I can take this much longer Maybe one of these days You'll think of my feelings too Instead of just yourself and your kids No matter what, they will always love you They know the real you And it's different from what they've been told I know they won't turn their backs on you As they grow old I am affraid to express everything that I feel Because if I do, your love for me I shall kill The love that we have I hope lasts for good The one thing I wish Is to be understood I don't want to be ridiculed And made feel two inches tall I just don't want to be the odd one out That is all No more to be written No more to be said Like you always say It's all in my head
Reason for writing:
At this point in time, I was going through hell with my, now, ex-husband. When this is read, I hope that everyone can feel the emotion that was put into it. *s*Birth sign: Not entered
