The second in my Whisper in the Wind collection
Roses are red, violets are blue
I was so caring
but you never knew
day after day you would see me staring
I wanted to tell you so many times
how I felt about you
but I was so scared, freezing all those times
trying to send you a clue
but that is the past
a time that will haunt me evermore
If I would have spoken just once, maybe it would've last
Tears form as I read your favorite Edgar Allen Poe, "...Quote the raven nevermore"
as the first tear falls down my face
I remember the summer we spent togather
only eight years old we ran, swam, and we even had a bicycle race
that was also the summer you lost your father
The second tear falls
I remember all those nights we spent
staying up late watching movies and sometimes just staring at the walls
all those times that you were there when no one else was, I swear you were heaven sent
My tears begin to uncontrolably flow
I hear them fall and crash to the ground
I was not and am not ready to let you go
It hurts knowing that at twenty one your going to be locked away in the ground
I hate myself for never telling you
and now you can't see or hear me
I look at your body and whisper, "I wish you could have knew"
I caress your cold hand placing my head on your chest asking you to forgive me
as I kiss your cold forehead I whisper, "I Love you"
with tear filled eyes I say my final goodbye
as I walk away I hear a whisper in the wind "Know I love you too"
