(this is the true account of how distance destroyed my one and only happiness)

1 year

Your lips pressed against me
The tears stream down my face.
Your hand slipped from mine
And I saw you board the plane.
I pressed my hand to the glass
Waving goodbye-wishing I could go too.
I can still remember the dispair
And how much I already missed you.
You left my life that day
But I didn't know for how long
I thought one year would bring us back
But, the distance was too strong.
Our love did not survive the long, hard year
As we thought it would
But, love would make everything better
Or at least I thought it could.
But, here I am one year later
And you are the one that I miss.
Remembering the anniversary
Of our last and final kiss.

You have a way of inspiring me to tears.

Moonlight, this poem made me so sad. The reality that we can have anniversary's of heartache as well as joy. And I thought I was the only one.

Let my words fall first upon deaf ears before a closed mind...

...and you try not to remember the heartbreak anniversaries, but it never fails that I do.
