Losing Hope

You put up a brick wall
and block me out of your life
even after you put a ring on my finger
and declared me your wife.

You've been distant lately
holding me at bay.
I lose a strand of hope
at the end of everyday.

You don't look at me the same
as the day we first met
and when we walk side-by-side
we're no longer in step.

You whisper that you love me
when we cuddle late at night
but the star we claim our own
does not shine as bright.

Perhaps we're holding on to a dream
a wish that will never be
because a future together
I can no longer see.

You've forgotten who you are
and you lost me along the way.
So take the time to find yourself
for by your side I'll stay.

Just hold me tight and never let go,
we'll journey together, nice and slow.
