More Than a Little

I was more than a little in love Fitted to you----The proverbial glove Caught up in requited fire Touching the stars, yet ebbing higher. Didn't matter that we'd barely met My first--my last----I kinda forget. It was more than a sensual fling Couldn't be--but it was---that's the thing. A lifetime and many miles apart Yet you managed to capture my heart. Don't know when that plan of never Turned into some kind of forever But it did-----Just because And we liked how it was. What do I do now that you're gone I can't just erase and move on But somehow there's no choice So I hold on to your voice And save your words in my mail just in case old memories fail. I never got a real goodbye And I miss you, but I will not cry That isn't what you'd want to see Life stages--changes, meant to be. There's a hole in my heart, but I'm standing strong Anything less would be all wrong Yes, I fell more than a little in love What began as a nudge became a shove Knew I could love you if I just let myself You always stood apart from everyone else So you you gave me permission to love you To caress your very soul And the part of heart you gave to me made my broken spirit whole. Yes, I was more than a little in love.
