To see you now with life's scars on your face
Each
one tells a story of its own
As the lines grow many and deeper
with time
Your love shines through and never dims.
Things I
took for granted like you'd always be here
Now weighs heavy like
a stone in my heart
You gave me life and took from your
own
With never a second thought never a blink
I hope that now as you
look back
You see your love was not wasted on me
I could never be
all that you are to me
I am merely a reflection of your
heart
Disappointments from me are like the fallen rain
Too many to count though my
intentions were always good
But if you take my hand you will feel your
soul
It beats in my chest and drives me on
Wish I could's fill my
heart and mind
But no matter what twisting road my life will
take
And how many pains I must indure in the process
Always know that
you did the best you could
Through it all I will always love
you.
