She was my all

My everything.

Naivety played its part

But I thought this was true.



It began in innocence

But moved on.


Love.


It can have so many

Meanings and none at all.

The oldest symbol in the

History of Humanity.

Those infamous words.

My love is for you

And you alone.

Is that not how it should be?



No. The Fates have rolled  

Their dice.  

And now I stand here

Alone

With the weight of the world on my shoulders.



That smile. Just for me. No one else.

I felt alive. Its what I lived for.

Nevertheless, I will carry on; I will walk with my chin held high

And confidence in my stride.  

Life is the road ahead of me.

I have but stepped upon its verges.

I am ready.

And I will take every step as it comes.
