Just passing through....time

Lord, with her on my mind

It has been so many tears ago

By a river of years that flowed so slow

A love burns for her eternal

As a flame without a candle

This heart breaks when someone drops her name

Into so many pieces it will never be the same

What happened to vows that filled us with wonder

Betrayed by a best man who put them asunder

Sentenced now to wander through this life

Never settling down, not knowing how without a wife

Robert,
I was drawn to this line:
"this heart breaks when someone drops her name....Into so many pieces that it will never be the same..."  
I love that, and would like to use it in a song at some point, if I may? Let me know, ok?

...you are me, I am you, we are one...

Powerfully written, Robert.  I do so hope this is not your reality.  Very sad.  

All writing comes
by the grace of God.
