Feeling Old and Needing Your love

Tonight as I write
I am feeling so old
Bent like an old man
With bones brittle and cold
Full of pain and an anguish
That tears me apart
As you reject my love
And dismiss my heart
Telling me your love
Was really never there
With an edge to your voice
That says you don't care
Which leaves me with emptiness
And just wanting to cry
With no reason to live
Just wanting to die
But I can't surrender
No, just not yet
I can't exit from life
Having any regrets
So I'll wait 'til tomorrow
To see what life brings
Praying you'll love me
And make my heart sing
But right now as I write
I am feeling so old
Wishing your heart
Wasn't so cold
Wanting to hold you
Needing your love
Ever believing in miracles
From Heaven above
Waking each morning
With a fresh outlook on life
Carrying a prayer in my heart
That you'll still be my wife
And of course you know
I Love You
I always have
And always will . . .
