Being With You

I couldn't sleep last night
Knowing that it's over
Between us.
I' not bitter anymore,
Because I know that what
We had was real.
And if in some distant place
In the future we see each other
In our new lives,
I'll smile at you with joy
And remember how we spent
A summer beneath the trees
Learning from each other
And growing in love.
The best love is the kind that
Awakens the soul and makes
Us reach for more,
That plants a fire in our hearts
And brings peace to our minds.
And that's what you've given me.
That what I hoped to give to you forever.
I love you.
I'll be seein you.
