I wanted our life

That we planned

Every moment

Every up and down

I wanted our child

And maybe two or three more

A part of you and me

Forever

Eternity

And whilst I know now

It was not meant to be

I can look back on it now

And not feel my heart break

But my eyes burn with tears

And I feel empty

It hurts a little less

But I can’t help but feel this way

I replay the nights in my head

Every touch, every glance, every word

I try to keep the memory burn in me

I will not let this fire be put out

As if 6 years haven’t passed by

Since we last were together

Both you and I

The love I felt for you

Transcends the realm of dreams

I wonder if you felt it too

It comes to me as easy as breathing

But I can’t fake what I feel

I have no poker face

I wear my heart on my sleeve

And it doesn’t change things

How I truly feel about you

I wish I could let you know

Suddenly my words fail me

And all I have is

What a day can change

Or a moment or two

Am I a fool to believe that things will work

We can both pretend

And ignore the obvious

But we’re happy to play the same game
