For Always

Written by Mike Gallego

I was bored at school during our lunch break. I remembered that we would be having an activity on old ballads in our English class that day, so I decided to put this in writing. This one is not about or dedicated to a particular person, so please do not surmise. I am saying this because I know that some would do. Enjoy reading!

For Always

For always I thought
I knew you well
I know your joys
I understand your pain
I have been with you
Time and again.
And I even know your secrets
You barely not tell.

I can make you laugh
Just by doing my silly stuff.

Never came on my thinking,
That all the while you were pretending.

I listen eagerly with every word you say
And believed in all lies you created.

Sad song caused you cry
And you hate the word goodbye
You're full of fantasies
And love happy endings.
Well, you are just like me
We are sentimental beings.

Years had count in our rows
And our friendship seems to grow more.
I treasure you more than a person
Could do in a diamond.

I didn't play you sad songs
For i don't want you to cry
Neither I said the word goodbye
For I don't want you to be left behind.

But why tears are running down my cheeks?
If you just shared with me your grief
And surrender to Him all your belief
Maybe our friendship would be of a happy ending.

For always I thought
I knew you well
I know your joys
I understand your pain
I have been with you
Time and again.
And i even know your secrets
That you really didn't bother to tell.
