Still, I shall love you.

Darling, I think you should know

if you ever choose to leave,

if you ever decide to go

I shall miss you.

I shall miss you until all the light

drains out of the stars

and darkness is all this world knows.

and I shall miss you until my eyes close and

my green no longer shines.

Till my eyelashes turn to dust and

none come to take their place.

And still I shall miss you.

this thing they call a heart,

it will cry your name for all eternity,

even when my lips are too proud to say

you're consuming my mind.

And you should know

I've given you my pen.

You're only a man but

your every word is etched in blood

beautiful to my soul.

So, you should know.

in case you ever get to

wanting to go.

I shall miss you.

I shall miss you the way I miss

peanut butter and cheese

I shall miss you the way

i miss the sun all my Alaskan winter long.

And I shall miss you until I go cold and frozen

the blood in my veins will cease to sing;

but yet your name will linger.

And always, your memory will echo on,

through the broken caverns of my empty soul.

And just so you know,

if your perfect heart ever goes,

I will never, never ask you to stay,

proud is my tongue.

But my heart will die

missing yours.

My pillow shall hold the amazon river of my tears,

as your wonderful feet walk away.

And still, I shall love you.

Even then, I will love you.
