Just the One
Do you know how much you mean to me?
I'd write a thousand poems just to show you,
But all you need is just the one, you know that I love you.
Do you know how many tears almost fell on to this page,
At the thought of losing you and all the memories we made?
I know you won't be gone forever, I know I'll see you again.
And you will be happier, up there in heaven.
Do I mean this much to you, too?
I must, I know, I do.
