Analysis of I Will Forever Love Him
Teresa Whitney 1951 (Tacoma)
Once again I am writing,
But only to myself,
I write most every day,
Putting it up on a shelf,
I list the wonder's I feel,
Some sad, some fine,
I wait most every evening,
Right here online,
Should I say something,
Or just let it be,
My heart ache's to see him,
In him I believe,
When connecting I am happy,
When we depart I am sad,
In my heart there is something,
Or is it just a fad,
Again I am writing,
Why should I try more,
I will forever love him,
He touched my heart's core.
