Forever Your Lover and Very Best Friend
By, Alysia, 19

Words have yet to explain

just how much you mean to me.

You shine your love so bright,

it’s impossible for the universe not to see.

Yes, times get rough,

we argue and shed tears;

I’ve never doubted your love, though,

I know we’ll withstand many years.

We started our love journey early,

for that we’ve paid the price.

I’ve tried to keep my head held high, I’ve dealt with hard times

and never looked back twice.

What the future has in store, we have yet to see,

I just know I want me beside you and you beside me.

Times may get harder

and arguments may look as if they’ll never end.

No matter what I’m here to stay,

Forever your lover and your very best friend.

No one said this would be easy,

I knew that from the start.

I told myself I’d wait,

but you took me by surprised and stole my heart.

From that crisp day in April on

I made a promise to you and me,

We’d be together forever,

Until the end of eternity.

I’ve wondered what my life would be like,

If I hadn’t chose you.

Then, that thought quickly disappears

because there’s no replacing real feelings that are deep and true.

My love for you exceeds beyond all possible things and it’ll never be given to another.

A beautiful love we’ve took precious time to mend

and we’ll be in love forever.

Yes, I know times will get harder

and we may be on the verge of letting US end.

No matter what I’m here to stay

Always and forever your lover and your very best friend.
