When Love Hurts      

 When the time ticks on, oh so slowly

While I await your arrival home

From work, a friends, or the store down the street.

When I worry over your being sick,

Depressed, late coming home,

Or of just your silence that may drag for hours.

 When we argue over  silly things,

Yet still hurt the others feelings, or when

We can just see the sadness or fear in the other's eyes.

When love hurts the most is when I can’t hold you tight enough

Or climb inside of you, feeling every bit of your warmth,

And when a lifetime or forever doesn’t seem long enough to spend with you.

 I sometimes hate so much when love hurts

But it will always keep us so close

      I know this because when it hurts I know I am feeling so much for you

And wish to hold on forever and  never let you go.
