If You Must Go

If You Must Go

My heart would cry a thousand tears

if you were to leave so soon

if i could go and get it

i would bring you the moon

but in a way i would smile

because i know you would be at peace

but the beating in my heart

for you would never cease

i would walk the edge of eternity

watching the waves slam on the shore

and drift on the memories

of that chance to love you more

i would see your eyes in each

ray of the rising sun

and my heart would softly whisper

about how you were the one

i would see your smile

on each color of light

and i would feel your warm embrace

on the coldest of nights

i would feel your touch

on each gentle breeze

and to know you were there

would bring my heart to an ease

i would take into fond memory

those nights spent with you

and in those thoughts is where

i would find peace to be true

you are the best thing

in my life right at this time

and never will there be

another to walk the same line

you are one in a million

no matter what anyone has to say

just please know that you

made me smile today

you gave me a hope that i

once had thought i freed

you gave me back something i lost,

that something was me

you brought to my life

meaning again

and for that i am grateful

to you...always my friend

in you i can see

the beauty of life

even though you feel you are

wracked with pain and strife

whenever you are feeling low

on a cold rainy day

please..remember

that you made me smile today
