Effort

you said you loved me,
that your feelings they were true.
you signed you letters "always"
when times got tough you walked away,
I can`t but love you more each day.

you give all of yourself to duty
kids, college, work. but no fun.
why not go for a meal with me ,
for a couple of hours just to break free.

i know you may not reply,
my love for you means i must try.
we shared a love that was so right
a love so good thats worth the fight.

a sunday afternoon a run for two,
of to the pictures just me and you.
a little bit of effort I hope youll show,
from these seeds love may grow.
