You'll Never Know

You’ll never know how good we could be together
You’ll never know what it feels like to hold my hand
Or look into my eyes and see the love
Or to feel the fire emanating from my soul
You’ll never know the taste of my sweet kisses
On your lips and eyes in the morning
Or me holding you when you’re having a bad day
You’ll never get to watch me grow old with you
Or play with the grandkids on a porch swing
To look into their tiny faces and see us
You’ll never know my love so deep for you
Or get to hold me when I cry and depend on you
Or caress the tear away from my cheek
You’ll never know what it’s like to sleep next to me
Our bodies together, spooning and what it’s like to
Watch me sleep while dreaming of our future
You’ll never know what it’s like to hold my hand on
My death bed while saying goodbye to your oldest friend
You’ll never know what it’s like to have me holding yours
When you take your last breath knowing you were truly loved
You’ll never know…me.
