so long
why is it never easy to say good bye
to smile at you and not feel my throat dry
to look at you wave and not want to cry
i still need you - no matter how much i try
there is an emptiness inside me today
this feeling will not pass in a day
this hollowness, i know ,is here to stay
bieng with you completes me-in every way
i know that someday you will be mine
but for now this passion seems a crime
the madness so hard to keep sublime
this unrequited love striving to shine
how tempting it is to live with this pain
to accept rejection and let my love wane
it may be madness to still hold on to your name
but if means keeping you - i choose to be insane
