When We Were Us

When We Were Us

A Poem by anne p. murray- LadeeAnne

                

            

 __________________________________________________

 

When I was you and you were me

     we built our love on trust

slowly and surely…

     our  'we' became an  'us'  

 

Together we fell in love believing it would last

For years we shared our joy

     but sadly our ‘us’  became the past

 

I learned to play a game

pretending it didn't hurt

each time I heard your name

          Then the last time I saw you

I could hardly catch my breath

 

As the tears began to flow

     my heart began to skip a beat

it's been so hard to let you go

     how much longer can I pretend

            Because even though you're gone

     I still love you so
