Reminder

For the longest time,
I have been closed off,
From the affections of others,
Until the day that I met you,
My eyes were suddenly open,

I was always cruel to you,
Right off the bat at least,
Pushed you away,
Too afraid to love,
And be loved,

You came,
And took me by the hands,
And said to me,

"Can you feel this,
This heart that beats?
Can you hear me,
I'm screaming inside?
My love for you hurts so much I could die,
Here in your arms."

"Can you see this,
These tears I shed,
These tears that fall from a crystalline ledge,
My heart is yours,
For now and forever more."

I heard these words,
And instantly I began to cry,
I hated myself,
For all I had made you feel,

You brushed away my tears,
And held me close to you,
I could feel your wet tears silde down my neck,
As you kissed my hair,

I know, now what I am missing,
I am missing some thing so pure,
And that is you,

"Oh can you see me,
I am finally smiling,
Can you hear me,
This song in my voice,
I love you,
And that will never change."
