I wanted to send you an e-card, like we did when we first met, <br />I searched and searched all over the internet, <br />Can't find one that rings true and I have to wonder why, <br />I don't know that it is love I see reflected in your eyes, <br /> <br />Can't say you bring all the sunshine to me on cloudy days, <br />You haven't always been there for me as all the cards seem to say, <br />Can't say you make me feel so secure when you hold me in your arms, <br />Can't list truth and constancy among all your charms, <br /> <br />I guess they don't make the card with words I need you to hear, <br />A card that says I love you still, without all the good cheer, <br />The soft words of a lover have vanished from your lips, <br />Repaced by lots of maybes, we'll sees and ifs, <br /> <br />How can I still love you after all that I just wrote? <br />How can I from such lovely cards to you quote? <br />How much longer should I search, how much time should I spend, <br />On something that you will not miss, the card I did not send,<br /><br />Vallerie Lobell<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-card/
