I am not sure if the rhyming cheapens this or not. How Long? I know we were meant to be, my loveI just don’t know for how long 'til the fall’s failing light? or the morning frosts’ bite? or the ad lib to fade of our song? I know we were meant to be, my love but in rapturous mutual reverie? warm and aglow because we both know that our love is complementary? I know we were meant to be, my love what we’ve shared no one can deny but the message your sending is that our time is ending and I’m too scared to ask myself why I know we were meant to be, my love now the fear of our parting is real for a score or so years I have witnessed your tears and their sting I have started to feel I know we were meant to be, my love and perhaps for too long I denied the price that I paid for the beds that I’d made and my laughter while your cheeks dried I know we were meant to be, my love and I hope and I pray that in time that rather than hateful I can become grateful for sharing our rhythm and rhyme I know we were meant to be, my love and I beg that maybe tomorrow I can dry my sore eyes to know and realise that parting is such sweet sorrow Thank you for all of your time, my love please forgive my self-centered ways and if this aint the end then I promise to send my love ‘til the end of my days
