I Read You Loud and Clear
In your letter
You said
I hate you
In your letter
You said
Never again
In your letter
You said
I hate you
And I choose to remember
The words that you say
In reply
I said
I loved you
In reply
I said
I'm sorry
In reply
I said
I heard you
And I choose to remember
The words that you say
In your letter
You broke me
In your letter
You let me fall
In your letter
You broke me
And I felt your anger
And I let go
In reply
I fixed myself
In reply
I tried to fly
In reply
I fixed myself
And I felt your anger
And I let go
But your letter
Does not say
You never loved me
But your letter
Does not say
You do not care
But your letter
Does not say
You never loved me
But I read you loud and clear
You want no part of me now
In your letter
You said
Never again
In your letter
You said
Good-bye
In your letter
You said
Never again
So I wrote my last letter
To a Judas with a kiss
In reply
I said
Forever
In reply
I said
Tearful good-byes
In reply
I said
Forever
Forever will I remember you
Forever to hold your secrets
Forever to hold your lies
Forever to love you far away
I read you loud and clear
But you need to read me too
I was young
I was in love
I fell from grace
I fell from your eyes
So I read you loud and clear
But you need to read me too
The angel with one wing hovering above the fire's blaze.
You were my harbor in the storm of your eyes.
You were my twin in a silver-violet storm of mist and anger.
You held my memories where others held pity.
You held my fragmented heart through the cuts and blood.
You were my everything.
But I was never enough.
Like your mother.
I held you up through the storm in your heart.
I held your words inside me, swirling with pain.
I carefully guarded your heart from the pain.
I kept you alive for you, for me.
I revered you in the way only I could.
Where there were men, you stood among as king.
And I was blessed to ever have been lucky enough to love you.
I read you loud and clear
But you have to read me too
For all I've said
For all I've done
I loved you
I love you still
For everyday that goes by
For every minute I am apart from you
For everything we ever had
I love you
But you are gone
Forever this time
For in your letter
You said
Never again
And in reply
I said
Forever
I'll wait for you for forever
When dreams become dust
And clouds become mist
When memories become a picture
Unfamiliar to my eyes
When thoughts are forgotten
On that rampant train of thought
I'll wait.

"That's what you think..." I say.
"No, it's what I know." You say.
"Then you know wrong, because as long as I have you, I can fly to the moon and back." I say.
Your pleasant, husky laugh.
My silence.
"____?" I say.
"Yeah?" You say.
"I love you..." I say.
"I love you too. More than you could possibly know." You say.
I smile shyly and you grab my hand.
"Forever..." I say.
You kiss me.
A promise sealed in time.
