I don't love you because. .

I don’t love how the day ends today or how tomorrow begins,

Just how different tomorrow is, and how much is unseen

I don’t love the rain on my face, sunshine on a cold winter day,

Just the fact that when I need to, I can still feel them today

I don’t love that you were there, or when you go away,

Just the feeling I can still be myself once more and yet insane

I don’t love promises that were made and yet never fulfilled in time,

And yet I look forward to be honest to you, to what truly is mine

I don’t love you like strands of music or even pages of a book,

I just love you because of everything you are, when I have no where to look,

 

I don’t love you because of special days and presents still,

I just simply love you for the time you spend with me of your own free will

I don’t love you because you define what I can or cannot be,

I love you because in spite of all that, you take me for what is the real “me”

I don’t love you because you changed beyond what I understand,

I love you because you tell me sometimes in life we cannot pretend

I don’t love you because of faith or trust or even honest regrets,

I just love you because of times I knew would always last,

                                                                  Some that we could never forget.

I don’t love you because you chose to be different, far away,

I just loved you, because I believed atleast my friend was here to stay

I don’t love you because of what I feel, and what I can and cannot take back,

I just know I loved you with my friendship, something true that’s all I had.

I don’t love you, because you tell me you can never be in love,

I just loved you because I wanted to know how much love was enough

I don’t love you because you are always mine,

But rather because you will always be far away and yet. . .

                                                                          . . . .with me till the end of time

Would I . . .

Would I change my name just tonight?

Would I be insane would I put up a fight?

Would it matter somehow if you are in the next room or far away?

When I pick up the phone tonight I know I have nothing to say.

Will it just be another sunrise or another sunset as the day gets over,

Why do things keep getting close as you seem to move farther?

Why do some questions matter tonight and some really don’t.

I ask myself will I simply change, or I won’t?

Would I really change myself to find a friend in you?

If not someone I love, someone so true.

What do I have to prove, I seem to falter every time.

Why I haven’t stopped thinking about you, since the clock struck time.

Will I find an answer tonight to the questions I was to ask?

Or an answer to atleast one of them, will I find a chance.

Won’t I get to know how lonely it gets in the night?

When things may stay just where they are, but we move away from our sights.

Would you sit with me this night; will you help me sing my song?

I know we have no rhythm tonight, but a hope that we rhyme when we sing along.

In the beauty of tonight will I once stare at the glimpse you gave?

Would I really find my answers? in your memories that remain.

Just my imagination. .

Just my imagination, doesn't let me get lonely tonight.

In tonight I find no answer to my questions toni8,

My questions seem to die out without a fight.

Just a lonely sky no star to guide me home,

And all that made sense some ni8 seem but all gone.

Just tonight when the lights are out and I am off to sleep,

I wish u would sit right beside me, just in case I weep.

And if u are not listening tonight to my thoughts as I search what I feel,

I wonder if u feel the void as I seem to fade out unseen.

Just toni8 I want to hold u tight and open my heart to you,

I just wish you would find a reason, to open up so true.

Just this night I want to write till no end,

How I long to find my long lost friend.

Just this night let me never put down my pen,

I just don't want tonight to end.

Just this night let me wash off my stench from yesterday,

Let me just get thru this phase, get thru this day.

Just this day when I wake up sometime,

I wish it was all a dream &yet so close I call it mine.

Just this night I wish of excuses, which at least I may find true,

Anything that keeps you close to me and “me” close to "you".
