25 years in the making



25 yrs & no closer to my goal. My heart in your hands, you're the keeper of my soul. The thought of you gives me sweaty palms and I can't catch my breath, how many days without you do I have left?

 Many years after meeting... oh how time flies. Do I just give up on the hopes of you becoming my guy? An eternal heartache I've carried for years. Holding back the pain, the fear and tears. Sounds sad & almost heartbreaking, these countless emotions are 25 years in the making.
