Shadows cast across the floor
With reflections of the past
As I watched our love castle turn into sand.
We shared so much together
Laughter . . . fun times . . . tears;
And when you crawled into bed beside me
We lay together
With a sense of you; and a sense of me.
Whatever happened to us?
Our laughter was so sunny and bright
And your face was all I would see.
You once told me you loved me
And that I could believe in you,
Then the clouds started to gather
And darkness spread its wings.
I tried to block out all the pain,
And asked could it be that I’m empty
Or maybe a little lost?
Could it be that I am lonely?
I lie at night and think
Is it me that’s to blame?
Now, I spend each day of my life
With my heart
Shattered and broken
As I realize how much I miss you
And the love that makes you who you are.
All I do is talk to myself In the mirror,
And try to justify the pain
As I assure myself everything is ok!
But who am I fooling?
For everything in life
There must come a last
So why do I still have these feelings for you?

Hello Jeff
Well you have described many of my nights in the past. Sometimes love is not meant to last forever. We must enjoy and be happy and remember the smiles we shared when it is over. To love someone for a while is to come alive with that person and share with them a part of you. A they share a part iof themselves with you. Try and remember the good and not the sad. It is hard to do and sometimes impossible. You take care of yourself. This was a beautiful and very heartfelt poem. Sandy

heart-felt and genuine...
I'm sure that anyone who has ever been in love, and gone through tough times, could relate to this on many levels. I know I can from a past relationship that went sour. In our case, love just wasn't enough. We were probably both just too young to know what the other really needed, though. Don

Somtimes, when it comes to love and relationships, I wonder if I learned anything.
