15 Years

For 15 years I have loved you
It is beyond a kiss
It is beyond a hug
It is beyond our friendship

You will find my love
In the lyric you hear
In the sunlight that warms you
In the food you make
I am the life you have touched
I am the love you have lost

For 15 years I have loved you 
And I will love you for a lifetime more

Thanks but this is not someone I am romantically involved with, but a past lover turned friend.
