I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU

By: Amy L. Chaves

Sometimes  it hurts

to see the sun rises and sets

at the horizon, alone.

Days turn to weeks, weeks to months--

when will I ever see you,

my precious one?

Meanwhile, I sigh, I cry,

not letting you know

the real reason why.

Tears drop for unspoken needs,

my heart aching,

for the feel of your hand

and the touch of your lips.

One day, soon, I will be with you--

I just don't know when.

Take comfort in my promise--

that I will always love you.
