Life's Lesson

You gave me a vision

of what life is to be

You showed me the world

What I was to see

You promised me love

said you would always be there

to lend me a hand

to show me you care.

We walked through the days

never rushing our steps

we cherished our time,

for the time was well spent.

Then suddenly one day

You wern't there by my side

you were gone forever,

But not a tear did I cry.

I rushed through the days

By myself all alone,

Cherished our memories.

Although my anger's grown

Then one day I thought of you

And sighed a bitter sigh

The long awaited sadness

Pierced my heart, and then I cried

I cried for all the empty

dreams that people have these days

I cried because I had a dream

And then it slipped away

I cried because a love like ours

was always meant to last

to endure through out eternity

The present ,the future, the past

and although I wouldn't have changed it

In my heart I know it's true

A lesson learned the hard way

was the price of loving you.
