When the story’s over
I hope you’ll have the chance to know
just how much of what I’ve written
has been about you
Maybe by then you’ll understand
what it is I’m feeling here
I’m not clinging to you out of desperation
but out of a desire to share
as much of your life,
your world, and your time
as I possibly can
All these words I’ve spilled upon these pages
trying to wrap my head around
something that really is so simple
It’s love, no more, no less
Not hard to understand
but somehow I can’t get it right
no matter what I try
I can’t make it any clearer
but they say to show, not tell
so how is it that I can show you
what you actually mean to me
and why I miss you so much?
