Everlasting Love

I remember the day we first met..
it was love at first site , my heart was set.
You were like my hero, a gift sent from above.
2 kids, falling in love.

We were young, wild and extremely dumb,
always doing shit to make the other feel numb.
Off and on..on and off..neither knew what to expect.
Every fight, every tear left my heart in a wreck.

Then you went away, leaving my world crashing in,
started doing stuff i shouldn't have been.
Drinking, drugs, drowning out my pain,
my world was a party...yet my life was plain.

Day by day, i slumped into darkness,
i became as cold and miserable as an abyss.
Slowly losing who i once used to be,
thoughts of your love, touch and kiss consumed me.

You were my world, everything and more,
i longed for you everyday but i wasnt the same girl.
My love for you never faded away,
i tried to move on but your memories would stay.

For over a year, you didnt want me,
i even tried to be the girl you wanted me to be.
I would lie awake, cry myself to sleep,
the partying and hoes had you in to deep.

Over and over again, my head screamed to stop,
yet still my feelings for you would come out on top.
I didnt understand how things went so wrong,
I wanted you back, you held my heart for so long.

Time and time again, I'd let you back in,
only to end up feeling like it was a sin.
I never gave up, I needed you in my life,
Since i was 15, all i ever wanted was to be your wife.

Every moment, i just wanted to give up,
my life felt so usless, like a broken glass cup.
I dont know why, i could never let you go,
without you in my life, the beat of my heart was so slow.

Then one day, my every dream came true,
my world turned around , i stopped becomming so blue.
You found your love for me, swept me off my feet again,
my smile came back, the Lainie returned from back then.

My built up walls came crumbling down,
no longer a frown,
on the face of a girl who loved a boy..who put her head in a whirl.
Who still gives her butterflies, like the very first day.
Who promises never to leave, through sickness and through health, here to stay.
Love is eternal, will always be with you.
I'll love you until my last breath, this i promise is true.
