What we have lost will never be returned to us
That is the reality of life
Once love is lost can it be regained
Can you retrieve the freshness that once enticed
Do those tender moments re-appear
Loving eye to eye contact relived
What of us holding hands while on a stroll
Memories of that anticipated first date
Where have the nights of passion gone
How can we forget our dream wedding
A honeymoon set in the most exotic of places
Is that glimmer of hope our first child gave faded
Or does it slip away more and more
The warm embraces now bitter words
Hugs and kisses replaced by space in the bed
Civility replaced by cruelty
Distain there to remain
That is the question yet to be answered
