Have I Ever Told You That

HAVE I EVER TOLD YOU THAT…

Have I ever told you that,
my love belongs to you.
Forever to the end of time,
I’ve promised … to be true?

Have I ever told you that,
you’ve made my life worthwhile,
Your wonderful sense of humor, 
has always made me … smile?

Have I ever told you that,
I don’t want to go away,
But my life’s drawing to a close,
with you … I cannot stay?

Have I ever told that,
I’m wondering when I’m gone.
How soon you will forget me,
to another one … belong?

Gershon Wolf Date: 12/30/2020 7:28:00 AM Oh, this is wonderfully written, Barabara. So poignant, tender, and then in the last two stanza, so utterly heart-rending. For me a topnotch FAVE.
