Alone in thought,
My mind wanders back
To a time of joy and love,
When we'd walk together
Hand in hand along the shoreline,
Comforted by each others presence,
Solid as rock,
Excited by the thought
Of being together forever,
Not knowing what the future had in store,
Blind to the misery of what was to come.
Now I sit!
Waiting for that open door to close,
Watching as the sands of time
Slip away grain by grain,
Longing for this pain to end,
Unsure whether you know I'm here,
Broken by what fate has dealt us,
Aching for that time again.
