Tonight the Tears Fall

i used to watch you from my bedroom window i always wondered what it would be like to be loved by you i was at your wedding when you said 'i do' with the most radiant smile i saw you love passionately and give your husband your all i remember having wet dreams about you in many settings and situations i recall trying to flirt with you and you wondering what the hell i was looking at i lost count of all of the times you turned me on with your great taste and style i wish i could forget the tears you shed when your husband broke your heart i viewed you pulling yourself together i applauded you as you slowly found your strength to set yourself free i sent you a card when got your nursing degree and a better job i congratulated you as you rose up and you came up further i think back of all the times that you crept up in my thoughts i saw you at the seafood place one day and you waved me over i admit to the fact that i almost peed on myself when you did from that day forward, neither one of us ever looked back now i am living the dream of being loved by you your now ex-husband was a blind fool to not see the depths of the love you give i am elated everyday to hold you in my arms and cherish being truly cherished i am not an emotional man, but tonight the tears fall in sincere gratitude
