trickling through my fingers

The feelings of passion strong and -true

Emotions from long ago still build within me

I now have no regrets, no holding back with you

I’ve said what I needed, still looking to be free

Hard decision I was too weak to make

Your integrity astounds and overshadows my part

You spoke, I listened, my heart sank

Yet I have to smile and cling to that portion of my heart

The days and the years expand and contract

So far away and yet so close

What I should say and the ways I should act

You are the stronger one I suppose

You know how I feel, my dreams for you

I pray for your happiness

I plead for you that they come true

I ask nothing more and wish for nothing less
