He loves me
3 words that broke my heart as he says this through tears
He repeats and repeats and each time a tear falls down my face
"Since the day you were born I loved you and I know we only talk to each other for a few seconds but I really do love you"
And I repeat back to him
"I love you too"
And I do
I really do
I know sometimes I just feel he's a figurehead
But I remember the moments we shared and I know he tries
I know
I try not to show my voice trembling through the phone as he tells me to "stay strong"
I tell him the same...he needs to be stronger than me
He needs to stay this time
