Of what used to be my dream
Staring at all of my things
Wondering what this could mean.
How could this turn
Out this way?
Why should I
Let you go today?
This is not what we intended
Not what we had in mind.
What we lost
We will never find.
Pieces of our hearts have changed.
Neither of us are who we used to be.
How can we have drifted so far apart
When you still feel so close to me?
Fighting tooth and nail
We can no longer live together.
On our wedding day
This is not how we pictured ‘forever.’
We both love each other
And our hearts are aching so
But the spark has faded between us
And we both refuse to let go.
To start over again
To live my life without you
Is not something I’m sure
I’d be able to do.
But it cannot be fair and
It cannot be right
To cry to sleep
Every night.
Waking up in the morning
To what used to be my dream
I guess God is showing
Things aren’t always what they seem.
