I speak to you with words but can't be sure
If they express what my heart feels for you
The joy I felt entwined with pain so pure
Reveals my fear of knowing what is true
My soul has never felt such love as this
But not for lack of strength did it become
A forlorn thing forever doomed to miss
The heart of which it only tasted some
The love you gave which now I never feel
Did grace my lips with pleasure so divine
In this life I could only wish it real
This sweetness that I never could call mine
But missing you is worth the price I paid
For memories I'll have of love we made.
