Eternal Love

Several months ago we met,
As time past by we became close friends,
All the laughter and sadness we've shared, don't forget,
Became the center of no ends.

Over the time of the months we've shared,
I fell in love with you,
You just don't understand how much I've cared,
And how much I want you to feel it too.

The love I feel aches in my heart,
Because I can't touch you, feel you; I don't know what to do,
I tend to wonder if I should leave it alone, to part,
But my heart couldn't stand to leave you.

I truly want you and I to be,
For the happiness you bring me feels so right,
All I want is for you to fall in love with me,
For can't you, yet, see the light.

All you have to do is reach out and take my hand,
You won't regret it, I promise you,
For I have shown you beforehand,
How much my love for you is true.

I could not go on with my life, without you near me,
For my every thought of you lingers into the following day,
It's you and only you I want, can't you see,
I have faith and know we can find a way.

For if it ever came that we weren't meant to be,
It would hurt, like none other,
But my love for you would live eternally,
In hopes that we would stay friends further.
