This is for Joseph


Do you know how close I feel to you?
Do you know what you mean to me?
Sometimes I feel so closed off
I would love to look into your mind
I would love to experience what
You're feeling
I will miss you more than I realise
I love you more than you know
I share thoughts with you
That I can't even accept myself
Thoughts that seem wrong to me
I can express them to you openly
More openly than I can express them
To myself;
I tell you secrets which scare me
Secrets that I would not tell another soul
And it's all because I love you
More than I love life itself
Sometimes I wonder
Will it all be worthwhile
Once you have gone
Bernie better look after you properly
Because she'll have me to deal with if she doesn't
I'm so protective over you
Your safety is more important than mine
And that is something
I can't offer to anyone else
Joseph, don't forget me
Because you'll be on my mind
Till the end of time.
