You touched my life from the start, And when I wasn't looking you touched my heart, My feelings for you have some how grown, From friendship to more on their own. I tried to fight the way that I feel, But my heart you have managed to steal. I don't know if you feel the same way too, If I told you I love you, what would you do? Would you say the things I long to hear? What would you say? That's my biggest fear. Would you turn away and leave me alone? Would you hold me close till my fear is gone? Everytime I am with you, I realize more, You are the one I've always searched for. When I'm in your arms, it can't be wrong, 'Cause I feel like that is where I belong. I wish I could find the words to explain, How you are my rock when my world goes insane. But I'm tired of pretending that's all there is there, I want you to know in your heart how much I do care. This love I have for you runs to my very core, You're the one I've waited my whole life for. You understand me, and see through to my heart, Something that you seemed to do from the start. You are the best friend I have ever had, I can tell you anything good or bad. You don't judge me no matter what, That to me means a whole lot. I thank God each and every day, That he somehow sent you my way. 05/17/97 By Emerald
