The Powers That Be

Sometimes in life things are out of our control...
Especially when we feel we've given to the bottom of our soul...
Only to receive nothing in the end...
But I want you to know in me you have a lifetime friend...
It hurts that I can't give you what you want most of all...
Which is a friend on which to call...
In that respect I feel I have let you down...
And I'm sorry if I made you feel "jerked around"...
I hope we share more moments like we have in the past...
Because I never want it to end even if I can't promise I'll be your last...
Cause you see over the past few months I have grown real fond of you...
Through the good and the bad you have helped me too...
So even though time and elements are against us on all sides...
Just know that I still want to be where your heart hides.
