Darling,, I guess it was never meant to be.
     I miss what we used to be,

          Can't you see that I'm dying?

I've spent all of my lonely nights asking why,
     Making myself believe it's not true

         And end up waking in the morning without you.

My heart shatters every time I hear your voice,
      Reminding me of what we had
          And, now my life has changed forever.

I wish I could make you see
      How much you meant to me.

It's too late for me to say I love you,
     You've already moved on.


(Written ten years ago, when my marriage began to fall apart. I have grown from that shattering experience, and feel stronger for what I have learned.)
