What They Say

Everyone around us
Keeps saying the same thing
Something that I have grown
Tired of hearing
Over and over again
No matter how they word it,
Meant it or want it to take place
They keep saying
That we have become too serious
Too foolish in our love
That we need a break from each other
A cool down period
To reconsider what we've started
And where we're going
Our chances of standing strong
Against the world
To stay together forever
That we are setting ourselves up
For disaster or heartbreak
When our love stops shinning
To be honest
I used to believe
What they had to say
Doubts and fears sprouted inside me
But now I believe
There is nothing
That could ever break our bond
Everything we have gone through
Good and bad
Has changed the basis of who we are
As individuals and as a couple
I also believe
That this change has made us stronger
So strong that I am ready
For me and you to stand up
Against the world
Even if all we do is teach them
What dedicated love is supposed to be
Because I believe
That with you by my side
I can do whatever it takes
To overcome the difficult
Heart wrenching conflicts
Because to spend the rest of my life with you
I will do anything and everything it takes
Even if friendship is all we are destined for
When the end comes
And eternity is all we have left
A life as friends is better
Than a life without you at all

Do Feel

Inside I feel as if we are falling apart And I am the one to blame I don't know if you have sensed it But this is the way I feel I try to stop it You know I love you But I feel as if you are slipping through my fingers And away from my heart I feel helpless and useless There is nothing I can do or say To stop these feelings from coming But I guess that I should feel lucky That my heart still feels at all

Why

I keep asking myself Why does he love me?  Me of all people? But then I ask, why do I love him? And why can't I see myself without him? Why has my life changed to revolve solely around him? All of these questions and I have no answers No reasons as to why I guess we'll just never know This raises another question How do we stay together? I guess because we know what we have is real I am sure you are asking How can we be sure of that? I say because of our experience and intuition Tells us it can be All of these unanswered questions Stir conflict from time to time But we have learned that after The things we didn't mean to say have settled And we have long forgotten The things we didn't mean to do The only thing that remains Is our love for one another And I believe that is enough To thrive on for the rest of our lives

Remember

I remember when long ago All I could do was dream Of finding true love I remember when long ago My wrists sorrowfully showed my pain As did yours I remember when long ago Life held no meaning I felt as if I was being forced to play a game I remember when long ago I felt as if my closest friends Were abandoning me I remember when long ago Alcohol became a dear friend As I tried to drink away my sorrows I remember when long ago You stepped into my life And managed to change all of that Later I will remember How good it felt For your love to fill my heart
