Io Amare Tu, I Love You

Roses will wilt, chocolates will melt.
All I want is the feel of your skin, soft as felt.

The wind came and blew it all away.
Before I could stop it, or have anything to say.

The wind laughed at me, for it thought it self deceitful.
But it did not know the burden it had lifted, I was very grateful.

It soon would see, the way you choose to be.
And why I did not give you up so reluctantly.

But in this past that I have shared,
Is only the past and I see it now as if impaired.

For now I remember the things I knew before.
The way my heart sank when you walked out the door.

I didn't want to believe there was any good in it all.
I was not caught, though I was hanging, you did not let me fall.

The visions in which I see you are all scrambled and confused.
But then I hear your soft music playing and my mind seems to defuse.

I wish I could now say the past is the past,
And we could walk away from it together with not even a cast.

But all it seems to be is a vivid dream of something unseen,
As hollow as the image which I now portray, as if I were keen.

The burden that was lifted has now settled back down.
And I now realize that it wasn't a weight, for without it I would drown.

There are so many reasons why I should just say goodbye.
But it would be unlike me to leave without a vie.

I will say it once and pray you will not forget, so me being me and you being you
The last thing I have to say is...
Io amare tu
I love you.
