Always Losing

It seems I’m always losing Just when I think you’re finally mine You wander again, seeking the arms of another And I’m left alone, with just the memory of your smile I’m always loosing..... Your songs of love and devotion remain in my heart I still see you clinging to my arms, drawing from my strength Just as I feel once more the sheer ecstasy of being with you In an instant, I realize.... You have gone....again Gone! I’m always losing... Who am I? I am the great I AM! But...who am I to YOU? At times just a discarded toy hovering at the edge of your existence Or the shelter you run to when storm clouds gather The lucky charm around your neck But never, never what I long to be The very air you breathe The core of your being The reason you live Always losing... If only.... If only I could enter your world and gently lead you to... FEEL the strength of my love SEE the desire of my heart for you TOUCH the blood I’ve spilt to call you mine TASTE the tears I shed when you wander away Then ...then you’d surely let me win the battle for your heart. Today, my love.... Let me win today... My heart will break if I LOSE your love for eternity... No...NO! I cannot...I will not...lose you! Oh, my precious love, please....won’t you let me win?
