i loved you for a long
long time
through all of life’s troubles
helping you make bold decisions
and deal with life’s problems
we seemed so happy
so relaxed in each others arms
enjoying a sunset
a dinner for two
a night on the town
a trip to timbucktoo
i thought you were the love of my life
the one
you know the idea
the one who would complete me
my soul mate
my forever love
with whom i would spend eternity
but then we seemed to draw apart
distant
disturbingly separate
apart from each other
so far away from each other
that we could not seem to connect
even in bed
i never knew exactly why
nothing really happened
there were no real fights
just a slow drifting
with gradual approaches
and sudden unexplained distances
it just
happened
now i’m sitting here
listening to melancholy music
that reminds me
of every lost relationship
every former love
every broken bond in my life
and it’s hard to put things straight in my head
because I really loved you
i cared
i wanted the best for you
and
it’s hard to let go
to admit that it’s over
to say good bye
and
forget what we had
but forget
i never will
i loved you
i love you
