All That I Feel For You
By Kenneth R. Cabrieto


            Your smile opened my eyes,
            That way you cared opened my heart.
            With all these things and more,
            I saw no reason for us to be apart.
            It the beginning we were just friends,
            In the end I hoped for more.
            You, to have my heart,
            And I, to have yours.
            This vision,
            you're not sure of sharing,
            You care,
            But I am more caring,
            You like things,
            The way they are.
            You don't look at the future.
            It's just for you---too far.

            I was afraid to show you how I care.
            I was afriad of getting hurt again.
            I showed you how I cared.
            I am hurt again.

            I'm leaving all this alone now.
            My life has been torn apart.
            But if you change your mind
            I want you to know,
            If you want it...
            Here's my heart.
