Always In My Heart

I met you many years ago,

Communication doesn't always flow.

I lose you for a couple years,

Blinded by insecurities, fears.

Feeling like I don't have enough to offer.

That I'm not as worthy as others.

I hold back from expressing myself,

Afraid that people will think I'm weird.

But with you, I never have to worry.

I know you're always there for me.

We have a connection that can't be explained.

It's not just because we have the same birthday.

There is something about the way we think

That has been an everlasting link.

You've shared so many of my insecurities.

I know you must think like me.

When I'm afraid to reach out to you,

I should ask myself what you would do.

I know that your door is always open.

You're just waiting for me to walk in.

But I'm scared to let anyone get close.

I'd rather just exist as a ghost.

You should know I'm always thinking of you.

I hope that message makes it through.

I always hope you're happy, and doing well.

I look at your wedding pictures and feel my heart swell.

I love that you found him,

I love the life that you've created.

You are an inspiration, through and through.

I even dedicated a book to you.

Even when we don't talk,

You're always in my heart.
