As Long As You're Near



The first time we met, I could see,

That you and I, were meant to be.

Your eyes were so gentle, your smile so true,

When you first held my hand, I just knew.



Now the time has gone by, through laughter and tears,

These days I shall cherish, for years upon years.

Those memories we have, shall never fade,

For those are the steps, that we have made.



That was the past, the future is near,

I anxiously wait, for what will appear.

New homes, more laughter, and children so dear,

Everything will be wonderful, as long as you're near.

My boyfriend sent this poem to me and it means a lot. I was so upset the night I got it anyways so he just tried to be nice to me and I just wouldn't let him. I felt bad so I sent him this poem back and now we are closer than we have ever been before. thank you writing this poem.
