Leaving Love Poem by Randy McClave

I have loved you since the day we met
And I will love you until that day I die,
I will love you until, my heart stands still
And then GOD, he will hear me cry.
I have loved you since I saw your face
And I will love you when I am old and blind
I will think of you in poems and songs
Whenever or wherever my life is defined.
I place my head into my hand
As I write out this very last poem
I now wipe away a tear, though not from fear
Because now, I must leave you alone.
