My Love

My love for you will last until the last rain falls,
When the water stops hitting the shoreline,
Until forever is just a word people say,
And love stops being a game some play.

Your constant jokes, and laughter,
Keep my smiling throught my life.
Yet sometimes the laughter just doesn't make sense anymore,
And sometimes it feels like you're ready to step out that door.

I know you care about my so deeply.
I know you would do nearly anything for me.
But would it hurt to just say that you love me out of nowhere?
Would it hurt to show me in some way that you care?

My tears fall on account of what's missing.
Yet I don't know how to say how I feel.
All I know is that I love you.
And nothing in this world
Could change that.
