I still love you,
deeper than the ocean–I never told you,
and now mountains and hours
and all the pain you can force on me
cannot keep me from loving you,
even shunning my hope of happiness
so I can freely love you.
Don’t forget the laughter and words
that made me love you first,
so that even though lovers we will never be,
friendship in the truest form
can always be ours.
I love you still, closest to my heart.
