I Wish That It Were You
By Gunslinger
I wish I had the words to say- The things I feel for you. "I love you" sounds so shallow, But, my darling, it is true. You have taken my heart captive- With your laughter and your wit... And knowing I can't have you- Makes me want to hide and quit... I long to hold you tightly- And to kiss away your tears. To shelter you beside me, And to love away your fears. To spend forever with you- And to love you unto death... And whisper your name softly, With my final, mortal breath. But wishing is for fools, they say. I guess that may be true... But if someone walks beside me, I still wish that it were you. Written January 17th, 2002 © on Jan 17 2002 02:53 PM PST, John R. Yaws 0 • 10
