I still love you

Sometimes I lie to myself

My head takes over control

And sends my aching heart

Deeper and deeper

Into exile

And then there is a wilderness

Where a heavy shower of tear drops

Fall

I watch them dance on the ocean of our past love

As I remember the sweetness

Your loving soul bought to me

But in all of the promises

And glimpses of possibility

Where was the living reality?

And so I thought I closed the door on love

But can love end

If it is

Truly genuine?

Can I honestly put limits

On this longing for you

Is that wise and true?

So many questions

No real answers

And anyway

The answers that come just so often lead me

Further and further from love

But when I feel my heart

All that awakens

Inwardly

Is this undeniable flood of love

That overflows

And its then I know

What ever my head says

In my heart

I feel

Beyond any shadow of doubt

That I still love you
