I Will Always Love You

You pull at the strings of my heart;
Taunting and pulling;
You say, ‘I love you’;
I say it back;
Keeping the tears hidden;
Trying not to cry;
I didn’t want to hear you cry;
You didn’t want to hear me cry;
The tears fell anyway;
You say you want to wait;
I agree but there’s still pain in my heart;
Scared you’re going to find someone new;
Someone you love more than me;
Someone you’re never going to leave;
If that happens;
Spare me the apology;
I don’t want to hear it;
Let me deal with my pain;
In my own way;
And you go;
And have a happy life;
Remember I love you;
And always will;
And I’ll be here waiting for you;
In the end;
