I have searched for you in many things found parts but never the components that existed within the whole of you. I have searched for you in others , I have searched for you in the bottle . I have found emptiness in my efforts broken dreams bitter ends I have found rejection that you never allowed me to see within the dream you cast over are existence . I knew as I awoke this morning the rains symphony cast upon a tin roof would cause me only to reflect . I remember you without effort you were my evergreen and those are the worst kind of memories for no others can live up to the delusion of what once was . Together in those moments we lived more than in these years apart . I remember it all in spite of my efforts to erase every single image of you from my dreams . How I need that delusion when the silence brings nothing but pain. I have to say goodbye to you now for the poison of what was is killing the moments I have left . I realize love was are curse and time will remain the burden. We were the best of are passion nights with you spoken words though few between in a passion cast serenade . Would remain hours over simple sentences of others. I wonder do we stand still somewhere in time if so I do not a more beautiful portrait ever could be painted in red sunsets and a oceans farewell. The hardest thing I have ever done is closed my thoughts to you. Goodnight sweetheart . Maybe somewhere in time we will wake together anew .

The Best Of What Could Never Be
I have searched for you in many things found parts but never the components that existed within the whole of you. I have searched for you in others , I have searched for you in the bottle . I have found emptiness in my efforts broken dreams bitter ends I have found rejection that you never allowed me to see within the dream you cast over are existence . I knew as I awoke this morning the rains symphony cast upon a tin roof would cause me only to reflect . I remember you without effort you were my evergreen and those are the worst kind of memories for no others can live up to the delusion of what once was . Together in those moments we lived more than in these years apart . I remember it all in spite of my efforts to erase every single image of you from my dreams . How I need that delusion when the silence brings nothing but pain. I have to say goodbye to you now for the poison of what was is killing the moments I have left . I realize love was are curse and time will remain the burden. We were the best of are passion nights with you spoken words though few between in a passion cast serenade . Would remain hours over simple sentences of others. I wonder do we stand still somewhere in time if so I do not a more beautiful portrait ever could be painted in red sunsets and a oceans farewell. The hardest thing I have ever done is closed my thoughts to you. Goodnight sweetheart . Maybe somewhere in time we will wake together anew .
