To Desire

Why I must not, but,
I love you with all my whole heart,
So much love my heart may burst.
At the same time,
So much love, but so much sorrow.
I don't know if I ever have truly felt love like this before,
I think of your eyes, so beautiful, so wise,
I think of your laugh, your smile, and want
to just gently kiss tenderly your lips

Just being in your presence
brings so much happiness,
just your nearness is bliss

You make me smile, you make me laugh,
like no one else ever has,
over just the sillest little things
I am a kid all over again
All my cares just melt away
when you are near, I love you near

I think of you waking,
I think of you sleeping,
I am there with you
throughout your day
But do you even recognize me?

Oh my love, oh my love,
this love is more than I could
ever imagine
I thought I could never love this way
I had only dreamed of it in fairy tales,
To go to the ends of the world with you
without a second thought
Whereever you are is where I want to be

There's only one thing...only one thing...
you don't recognize my love..
you cannot accept my love..
as it is thought to not be acceptable
Would not consider me?
Just because we are worlds apart...so apart
because of our age

Why does it matter? Why?
It is just a number of a page
it is what is in your heart

I have tried to forget, my love,
tried so hard, but I cannot, cannot.

I just can hope and pray that God
brings a true miracle one day
that our love can overcome all!
