Every time I held you close!
I knew it was right! I could see your eyes gleam!
I knew this was something I wanted to see everyday.
I could tell you my deepest fears and knew it was safe.
The things I want to do!
At times I wish I could run away.
Set myself free from my clutches!
The ones I have set upon myself!
Walk without looking back.
Care for no one but myself.
Every time I see your pic, the memories come rushing to me.
The pleasant little smile. The sweet little innocence!
The great company you gifted me! The time you spared for me.
The goodbyes feel more painful and strained every time
