So... <br />So what if i love you, <br />For everything breaks - <br />This life gives then immediately takes <br />Over and over in a vicious charade <br />Of what we once loved in a different shade <br />Of meaning and colour and all in between, <br />Like who we made each other and what has once been. <br /> <br />Once upon a time when we were both young, <br />But those times are gone and now I am done <br />With childish things. <br /> <br />Time to put them away, <br />Time, and time enough to say <br />'I love you', 'I love you' - whatever that means <br />In all different times, in all different scenes.<br /><br />Amy Carmichael<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/so-18/
