All of my life to examine love and you'd think I'd get it right

All of my life I have loved you.
I have breathed your essence into my soul daily.
There has not been a moment in my life that did not contain the thought of you.

All of my life I have loved you.
Before you there was only existence, nothing more.
There was never a moment before that brought life to my heart.

All of my life I have loved you.
It never occured to me that you did not feel the same.
There was never a moment that I questioned that what you gave was only because I took.

You never kissed me, I kissed you.
You never held my hand, I took yours.
You never wrapped you arms around me, I clung to you.
You were my life, I was your convenience.

All of my life I have loved you.
It never occurred to me that you did not feel the same.
There was never a moment that you loved me,
I was just your convenience.
