So Many Years

So many years have gone by,
Yet, still, you plague my thoughts,
Making my heart beat just a little faster,
Just a little harder.

So many years have gone by,
Yet, still, your name haunts me,
Bringing back the memories
I tried so hard to forget.

So many years have gone by,
Yet, still, I long for your touch,
Making me just a little sadder,
Just a little weaker.

So many years have gone by,
Yet, still, I can see your face,
Bringing a smile to my lips,
A pain in my chest.

So many years have gone by,
Yet, still, you don't know what you do to me,
Making me just a little wistful,
Just a little doubtful.

So many years have gone by,
Yet, still, I think of you at night,
Your voice in my memory,
And the sweet way you said my name.

So many years have gone by,
Yet, still, you hold my heart,
Making it hurt just a little more,
Just a little worse.

So many years have gone by,
Yet, still, I have a place here,
In the familiar arms,
Of my insanity.
