On Loving You

Have you ever loved platonically
Then reach a point of true honesty
Written in your heart your dreams 
conceived among the evergreens.  
I often visit this sacred place
Where the hardwood's stand 
With so much grace
And every bird that chirps a song
Brings life to us, but not for long. 
For every moment I've spent with you is tender, honest but never blue
So we grew together and then apart, but never forgot the love in our heart.  And when we have to say goodbye, I'll hold this moment in my mind, parting ways until next time where the evergreens sway 
In our special place, 
Good bye my love but just for today.
