all that cant be said

you say you'll love me forever
take care of me whenever
search and protect me wherever
break my heart and leave me crying you'll never

he says our friendship will stand the test of time
sometimes i wonder if doubting that is a crime
we might be best friends today
but when tomorrow comes, who's to say?

they say family will support me through it all
the love and warmth to pick me up when i fall
siblings, parents and relatives who will never turn on me
i dont know, i guess i'll wait and see

often we are comforted
that this connection which has already started
it will remain there for eternal ages
adding to the diary of life new pages

for my thoughts she gives me a dime
i tell her "forever is an awfully long time"
then she starts to explain
clearing up the doubts which i claim

certain things do last
such things dont care about your past
the future is all that matters
till the day you die sends you love letters

forever is a long period
it doesnt even take that long to build a myriad
but he word holds a quiet promise
and takes your heart off the waiting list

to this dedication i stand in awe
to the sheer devotion i hesitate to call
forever might last long
but till you leave this world,
someone will be there to sing you a song
