Now I Know

Now I know the answer to the question I once asked
It’s strange how time seems to move so slow
And yet it goes so fast.

I no longer have to wonder
If you’d love me, if I were free.
You’ve made it plain and clear
That it was only a dream, not reality.

I still think about you day and night,
You posess my heart and mind.
I close my eyes and see your face,
Your smile so warm, your eyes so kind.

Now I can only imagine the sweet taste
Of your lips,
The tantalizing smell of your cologne,
And only the faintest sliver of hope remains
That one day you’ll call me your own.

The memories of the time we’ve shared
Are so very strong and clear.
I’ll hold them in the depths of my heart
To keep you forever near.
