    I'm Not Ready To Say Goodbye

    It's been 1yr, 2months, and 10 days since we met
    Way too soon for me to give up on you yet
    I've cried too many tears to just go, and do that
    Put so much faith into my hope, so give up, I can't
    I have never wanted anything more than you
    And I'll Be happy to tell everyone my words are true
    It shows in all the poems I write about you
    In the millions of tears I've cried over you
    In the prayers, wishes, and hopes I sent about you
    And in the letters I couldn't send you
    I let love pass me by
    So many times
    Cause I was holding out for you
    You were the one I wanted to give my love to
    Now, hearing how sick you are, makes me cry
    I'm not ready to say goodbye
    I was just going to let a little time pass
    Give you a Break from me being a pain in your ass
    Let you get your life together
    Before I tried, again, to get us together
    I missed the time to do that
    I got scared, and didn't know how to go about doing that
    I was afraid you hated me now
    Or you had forgotten me somehow
    So I wrote letters to send to you
    So I wouldn't have to face you
    I always feared the worst
    So I never sent the letters, afraid my hope would burst
    By chance, I finally met a good friend of yours
    She loves me, and shared stories of you guys, of course
    The last story she told made me cry
    I'm not ready to say goodbye
    She could see how much I wanted you
    So we made plans to see you
    Of course, things happened to stop us
    But we have not given up
    I am determined to see your face
    To once again, bask in all your grace
    I need to feel you once more
    Hear your heartfelt words
    But There is never a good time now
    And we need to, quickly, find the time somehow
    James, she says that you are very ill
    She doesn't know how long you have until...
    I can't even finish the thought
    The hope I had for us is now gone
    To think the man of my dreams is fading, makes me cry
    Cause I'm not ready to say goodbye
