I've shared in many journeys in my time,

Many loving feelings and dreams in my mind.

Sharing with sad and happy times that were there,

With ones who loved me and some who didn't care.

The love and feelings I have in my heart,

Sometimes were hidden , but there from the start.

Expressing my Loving feelings is special to me,

Like a special gift from your heart that would be.

Excepting a special gift from my heart that I give,

Is never for fun or game, it's given to your heart to live.

In the many memories of journeys in time I can say,

So much love given, I've seen thrown away.

I guess for many, love was never meant to be,

Your heart is cold and a hole you can see.

A hole in your heart, couldn't hold my love given each day,

My ending journey in my time will end this way.
