When We Were Us

            

            

 ___________________________________________________    

 

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

In the depth of separation and memories of Love Lost...Times shared.

[Shayla Sayer]

absolutely heart-wrenching.
