              A yearning inside -- no one else can fill it.  The
         burning feeling -- no one else can heal it.
              Why do I hunger for more of his love?  Why does
         his number not connect -- Yes, I wonder.
              The days pass so fast, the months, soon a year!
         Why can't we just slow it down without fear?
              The peaceful summer moments spent, seem like a
         dream -- twas heaven sent!
              He's opened me up to a world so brand new -- the
         books and his music to name but a few.
              All that I hope for is only to stay at least his
         best friend, I hope, yes, I pray.
                                 All my love,
                                   Kathleen
