I found a Poem you Wrote

Your poem read:

Tell me that you want me and that you can't live without me

I promise you that I will stay with you and I'll give you

no reason to doubt me.

*

You're always around me when I need a friend, and I know

that this friendship will never end.

*

But things mature with time, and I feel a stronger need now,

and I wish you could feel that.

So I decided I should respond to your poem all these years later...

Tell me that you want me and that you can't live without me

I promise you that I will stay with you and I'll give you

no reason to doubt me.

Not only can I not live without you now, but I can't exist without you.

And I never doubted you, even all those years ago.

You're always around me when I need a friend, and I know

that this friendship will never end.

We have a friendship that defies time; even when we were apart,

I knew it still existed and always would.

But things mature with time, and I feel a stronger need now,

and I wish you could feel that.

We have both matured with time, and we both feel that need now,

stronger every day that we are together.
