Hello to all my loyal readers! Take a guess at who it is talking, and who it is they're talking about. You'll be pleasantly surprised!
The One I Came To Love
The eyes that once taunted me
The names you gave me
I did not appreciate it
You said you were sorry for the pain that you caused
I see it now
How you truly felt
You accepted me as yours
And I did to you
Now you're gone
The face that I once hated
More than life itself
Shall become a memory in my heart
You left me with nothing
But the memory of your kiss on my lips
The memory of your body
Pulsating against mine
The memory of your voice
Whispering into my ears
Tender wishes, tender kisses
Things started off great
But then you went to her
I couldn't stand it somehow
We were meant to be together
When you two went your separate ways
I was there to comfort you
You accepted me there
You took me there
For the first time in my life, I felt loved
A love I never knew until you
But things got worse for us
You became ill
Dr. Kadowaki said you had cancer
"Absurd!" I had shouted
You were too strong
You couldn't die on me yet
We had just begun to be
You stayed strong for me, said things would be alright
The months passed by
You became too ill to make love to me anymore
I didn't mind
Even when we were told there was nothing that could be done
I wanted to save you
If only I knew about it earlier
You wouldn't be buried
Ten feet below me
I watch your grave for an hour each day
She has come to see you as well
We sat in each other's company and thought of you
I never thought it would happen again
But it has
I have fallen in love again
With her
The years have long passed
Should I move on?
I can't ever forget you
But I can't be like this forever
It only seems right
But living without you
Is killing me
She understands us
I want to be happy again
Would that be betraying you?
You're probably laughing at me from your resting place now
I've decided to marry her
We have a child on the way
A boy
We have decided to name him for you
Are you happy for me?
I wish you hadn't left me
But you had no choice
If only I had seen this coming
Then maybe things would have been different
Things change people
Your death changed me
I'm a father now
My son
He looks just like you
The eyes, the hair
The same smirk
Like you have been re-born
A miniature vision of you
I hope he becomes strong
Like you were and always will be
You were the one that I came to love…
