Wistful Echos

By nightshade

All those nights that you kept me warm
Those times that you kept me safe from harm
I’ll never forget you and I just want to say
Thanks for being here and calling me baby
I want to thank you for showing you care
You stood up for me like no one else dared
I don’t know how I ever got away from there
I just want you to know I thank you for being there
How could I have turned my back on you
And said that your love wasn’t true
I took the chance and said it wasn’t romance
That the only reason we were here was just by chance
Oh how I miss you and wish you were here
To lighten my life and bring me good cheer
Oh how I wish I could hold you close to me
To have someone there again who let me be me

    Very simple style. Easy to read, easy to follow, a good coctail with the complexities of the emotion you portray here. -Natelle
