who never belonged to me.
I have nothing to show
for all my agony.
when you were never mine?
Why do I feel as though
I’ve run and left you behind?
when I never said hello?
Why is it I cry
for one I’ll never know?
but you were never there.
I longed for you to be with me,
and show you how much I care.
I’ll never understand
why God took you away from me
before I even held your hand.
Please let me say one thing.
I love you more than you’ll ever know,
and I’ll see you in my dreams.
Me
