Secret Plea

In my heart and in my soul,
Please take my hand and let me know.
That though you are leaving , and you may never know.
How am I to tell you how much I love you so.
I cry these tears that no one sees, all our memories come crashing over me.
I feel you slipping away and there is nothing I can do, but hold on to the times I once had with you.
I regret the day where I look back and see the steps I counted when you walked away from me.
Behind this smile, he may never see, that in my heart is the way it still should be.
I sit here and wait for the day I again can call you mine, but until then I will be here watching the days pass by.
I know I have to say good bye. I know I do. But how do I say good bye when all I wanted to say was I love you.
