Didn't We

Didn't We

A Poem by CJKurtz
"

Love poem

"

The song lyrics that
Always make me cry
Are sung by the divine
Diva of pop - Whitney Houston

"Didn't we almost have it all
When love was all we had
Worth giving..."

And, when that was all we had
There was nothing but you and I

But other things - jobs, money, stress - got in the way
And other people - friends, co-workers, even our own kids -got in the way

"Cause once you know what love is
You never let it end..."

My Love For You has not ended
Will not end
And, although across the years
Due to time, distance, circumstance
It has never changed shape-
It has changed form

But...it hasn't ended

And that might just be
The saddest truth of all
