So Long, Goodbye

For so long I tried
Comprehending who you had become
And to stop missing
The person I once loved

For so long I feared
I would never get over you
And that the ghost of our past
Would forever haunt my future

For so long I cried
Praying for the memories to fade
And hoping I would forget what we shared
Like you have forgotten me

For so long I wondered
Why I couldn't let go
And why you still held
A piece of my broken heart

For so long
I put myself through hell
And couldn't figure out why
But today an epiphany made everything come full circle

I finally realized what was wrong
Looking back on it all, my dear,
You never fought for me
Never once did you put up a fight

Instead you walked away
Just as quietly as I did
And actually, I fought for our friendship
More than you fought for our relationship

I have said all I can
Any other words
And you don't care to listen
You have moved on

Now its my turn
Not only to move on
But to embrace love and to relish
In the amazing new relationship I am in

So goodbye my dear

We may still be able to be friends
But I am putting our love in the past
For I am finally
Finding the peace through all of the pain

Why

I keep asking myself Why does he love me?  Me of all people? But then I ask, why do I love him? And why can't I see myself without him? Why has my life changed to revolve solely around him? All of these questions and I have no answers No reasons as to why I guess we'll just never know This raises another question How do we stay together? I guess because we know what we have is real I am sure you are asking How can we be sure of that? I say because of our experience and intuition Tells us it can be All of these unanswered questions Stir conflict from time to time But we have learned that after The things we didn't mean to say have settled And we have long forgotten The things we didn't mean to do The only thing that remains Is our love for one another And I believe that is enough To thrive on for the rest of our lives

Stone Walls

I used to be a locked up soul With cold stone walls Built up to protect my  heart I thought I needed them And that I was doing myself a favor I didn't want to let people in On my dark hidden secrets But somehow you slipped through the cracks And forever changed my life You tore down those walls Without even blinking an eye You somehow melted the coldness That had taken over my heart I've told you personal things That no one else will ever know I now realize those walls were keeping me From truly living You opened my eyes And now I will never be the same I am now the person I want to be I am the person Destined to spend my life with you And that is all I want to be You are the only think I have found Worth living for You own my heart And that is how I want it to be Because you are the only one To ever get through those walls And now I never want you to leave

Your Arms

There are times when I get frustrated With things you've said Or because of things you've done There are times when I Do the same thing to you I upset you just the same But at any given moment No matter what else is going on In your arms is the only place I want to be With a simple touch of your hand A wonderful feeling of peace Comes over me No other joyful experience Could ever replace that feeling of peace Nothing else could compare To the simplicity of our love You make me feel so very safe When I am in your arms You are my great protector Your loving touch makes it seem Like the world stops turning And our love is all that ever seems to matter When we embrace I feel as if We are the only souls in existance In the universe that surrounds us These are the moment that I will treasure For the rest of my life As long as I'm with you
