Love kills slowly

by Aniluap

I do not know who you are

I do not know where you are from

I do not know your name

I do not know if I will ever see you again

Love kills slowly…

But I know your hazel eyes

I know the warmth of your touch

I know the feeling of your hand in mine

I even know the scent you leave when you walk by

Love kills slowly…

I do not know the meaning of love

I do not know how it feels to be in love

I do not know how to pronounce love

I do not even know when to know it is love

Love kills slowly…

But I do know the sky is brighter when you come around

And I know the way thinking of you makes me smile

I know I am defenseless against yours ways to erase all sorrow

I even know when I am with you time can wait until tomorrow

Love kills slowly…

I do not know what this is

I do not know how it begun

I do not know if it is a terrible disease

Or even if I will live past this to tell through time

Love kills slowly…

But I know the sighs and unexplained tears that come at night

And the pain within my chest I must constantly hide

I know colors have left, and turned into shades of gray

But above all l know it will last from now on every single day…

Love kills slowly.
