"It had to be fate." ... The moment we met,
there was a connection we could not deny.
It cannot be ignored it would not be forgotten.
The bond is strong; it will never be broken.

You held my hand as I followed blindly,
on a path unfamiliar we walk the unknown.

Spending our days discovering the world anew
ending the night in a cozy embrace
feeling safe in your arms while you hold me tight.
Nowhere else I would rather be.

Many years have passed and look at us now
invaded by silence our words are forced.
The majority of what you speak is hurtful;
that echo through my mind.

"I miss the laughter" where has it gone?

I wish it could be like our love from the past,
a hug or a kiss meant just for me.
We still share those precious moments;
however, they are rare.

Your steps are quick I am losing sight
I have fallen behind; my steps are slow.
Reach out to me and take my hand
to pull me forward; walk by my side.

With tender hands and gentle steps
carefully gather the shattered pieces;
to mend the wounds of my forgiving heart.

From you, three words are all I need,
for me to keep fighting for a love we once shared.
