Have I Told You?

Folder: 
Older Poems

Met a guy who changed my life,

Made me want to let go of spite

Told me to be who I want to be

Helped to set my spirit flying free.

Yes, he meant the world to me.



Have I told you that I love you today?

Don’t know if I’ve said it everyday,

But from now till the end of time,

I’ll tell you I love you

And wish that you were mine.



Plant a rose, get some thorns

Can’t promise love won’t be torn.

Gotta keep going through all scorn

Caus life ain’t a piece of candy corn.

No, I’ll get through it, ripped and worn.



You changed my life,

For good or bad.

Don’t think I’ll ever

Feel this way again.

No, I’ll never

Feel this way again.



You stole my heart, stole my love.

Pure as a crystal, sweet as a dove.

I’ll keep on loving you for all time

And only wish you could be mine.



Have I told you that I love you today?

Don’t know if I’ve said it everyday,

But from now till the end of time,

I’ll tell you I love you

And wish that you were mine.



You were never mine,

You never will be.

Love is all in history.

But I’ll keep on loving you

Keep up my spirit,

Because I know you don’t want to hear it.



Can’t stand love, can’t stand me.

Nor can you forget the history.

Been hurt too many times,

Giving up on these feelings.

Just wanna let you know

I’ll love you always and ever.



Tearing up my heart

Tearing up my soul

All these feelings

I just can’t control.

Love till the end of time,

Love to wish that you were mine.



Have I told you that I love you today?

Don’t know if I’ve said it everyday,

But from now till the end of time,

I’ll tell you I love you

And wish that you were mine.



Have I told you that I love you?

I’ll try and say it everyday,

From now till the end of time,

I’ll tell you I love you

And wish that you were mine.





Nothing right, not here, not now...

Need to change my life somehow

Author's Notes/Comments: 

written as lyrics, it was just one of those overdramatized poems about ordinary occurences... in this case, a friend's dilemma, plight, and ecstacy, depending on the day.
