Time & Matters of the Heart

Teenage life was hard it seemed, despite our innocence, feelings grew.

Then, time and life separated us.

We fought to keep in touch and visit over the years, even as our lives changed.

We went from talking about school, computers and girlfriends/boyfriends to talking about our spouses, jobs, homes, dogs and kids.

Never were words or feelings exchanged but I felt that I could see ‘something’ in your eyes.

The candle in my heart was kept alive by hope, that we someday might be together. What a fool I was..

Now, after so many years, the candle in my heart must be snuffed.

I don’t know what I have done but you’re no longer here, you still roam this earth but are unreachable to me.

All I have ever wanted to know is if ‘we’ might ever exist or even if I ever meant anything to you, I would feel at peace if I knew.

My questions will forever go unanswered and my heart has been broken all over again, just as it did in the years of our youth.

I will forever miss what we had and now my heart will now just bear another scar of what could have been.

I have and will morn your loss above all others, because I lost more then just love, I lost a friend who I held so close.

Gladly I would repent any mistakes I made and would spend my lifetime making it up to you.

But now I must face the music and dry my tears, You will be something I can never have..
