Every day

By: Noelle Darlene Bass

Every day I love you
but it all goes by so fast.
Soon enough 'I love you'
becomes part of the past.

Each and every morning
I long to come to you;
to tell you that 'I love you'
but I know it won't come true.

When you come to see me
I don't know what to say.
Then you break the ice...
"Have you seen my girl today?"

That's when I just crumble,
I tell you I have not.
Then you turn and walk away,
don't bother to stay and talk.

Often I just wonder-
would you act the same
if you really knew
how much I love you?

After every day
I realize I just can't say,
no matter how I long to
there's just no way to express

How much... I love you.
