Unfading Love Poem by Concetta Salter

There’s so much to tell you.
So much to say.
So much to do.
No time left to wait.

I’m lying here dying.
And you are my cure.
I’m sick of my lying.
I’m sick to the core.

I’ve loved you forever.
That much is the truth.
If where not together,
I’d fall to my doom.

I can’t last much longer.
I’m falling real fast.
I’m not getting stronger.
I know I can’t last.

This love will not vanish.
It won’t disappear.
I’ve just barely managed,
To hide all my tears.

I’m lying here waiting.
I’m not giving up.
And though I am fading.
Still strong is my love.
