My love, you are not with me anymore, <br />You left me in your disdain, <br />Knowing you were my all, <br />And that this could’ve ended my life. <br /> <br />Hate grew on me, <br />As love disappeared, <br />And love grew on me, <br />As hate disappeared. <br /> <br />This was all a confusion, <br />I didn’t know what to do, <br />Love and hate grew, <br />As the distance you drew. <br /> <br />Thoughts came and went by, <br />Till one day I realized, <br />All I had to do was to learn, <br />How to say an endless thankyou, <br />For all you did for me. <br /> <br />My love, my darling, <br />You taught me how to love, <br />And what it meant, <br />I know I did too. <br /> <br />Your love was an endless adventure, <br />A third world war I between my soul, <br />But you taught me how to fight, <br />And so I did fight. <br /> <br />My love, my all, <br />You taught me to believe in myself, <br />And so I never did before, <br />But for you now I do. <br /> <br />You taught me, my love, <br />Whenever I was childish, <br />You called my attention, <br />And so you taught me to grow up. <br /> <br />You taught me, my love, <br />What life was about, <br />To thank God for all I had, <br />And learn from those experiences that were so bad. <br /> <br /> <br />You taught me everything you could, <br />And you left the most important lesson for the end, <br />My love, you taught me what pain was like, <br />And for that Is what I am right now. <br /> <br />January 10,2009<br /><br />Ana Lia Zaldivar<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/an-endless-thank-you/
