~Standing The Pain (1)
(A Sestina)
(The original version)
I often think of you every single day and every single night.
And playback in my mind all the good times that we had.
I can't stop thinking of you and wishing that there was a way
To make all this pain disappear and dry for you my tears.
But no matter what I do I still think of your love.
One day you just went away and for me there was no more light.
From the first time I saw you made me see the light
And with your love you brought the light into my night
You made me realize once and for all what was love
Because love like yours I never ever really had
Your love healed me and somehow stopped my tears
I couldn't help but love you in every single way
I know that I've love you all these years in every way
I liked the way that in your eyes reflected the light
For so long you made me forget my own pain and tears
And daydreaming of you I spent whole days and night
You were for me the best dream that I've ever ever had
I loved you so much and all that I wanted was also your love
You woke in me such a tenderness such a passion for love
And you showed me so much about love's way
I truly enjoyed all those blessed years that we both had
You were my sunshine for so long, you were my light
And you were the stars that guided me straight into the night
The only one that dried my eyes when they were tears
You always dried my eyes when I cried and you saw my tears
For as long as I live I will never ever forget your love.
Days will never be the same nor will be night
You were so special to me in so many a way
You brought me love and smiles and all the sunshine's light
Yes, you were the best thing that I've ever had
Before I met you no one like you I've ever loved nor had
For so long I cried then you came and dried away my tears.
You brought me to this very wonderful place so full of light.
Without you I cried because you taught me how to love
And I'll love you always no matter what in my own way
I learned to live with this pain every day and every night
His love gives me the strength now that without you I didn't had
I know that I love him day and night and in every single way
He loves me so much and shown me his light
