Love

When I couldn’t sleep,
You were there.

No matter what it was,
Including nightmares.

Your words were comforting,
Along with your voice.

Loving you,
Wasn’t my choice.

You can’t be here,
But you’re in my heart.

Now things are coming together,
Not falling apart.

You coming in my life,
 Teaching me to live
	
Saying not to forget,
But to always forgive.

Love everyone,
No matter what.

And keep your eyes open,
And never let them shut.
