We Changed

You and I, we're different now.
We're opposite, like night and day.
Neither one to hold at fault,
I feel a bit helpless, in a way.

I go often to my secret place,
a place you'd never find me,
but there is where I find you
and leave reality behind me.

There is where I still love you
and replay our greatest memories,
lean my head back and sigh, as
your fingers touch me in the breeze.

There is where I will keep you close
though we've become estranged,
I won't let us fade into reality...
because reality is

we changed.

passing shadows,

That brought back a lot of memories.

I know I'm not the man I used to be,

and neither is she......

Well done!

Dixie, this is a beautiful love poem. Even though
it's sad in ways, in other ways it's not. Those
sweet memories are always beautiful.
Hugs,
Ethel

but there is where I find you
and leave reality behind me.


Applauding you while shaking my head in amazement...beautiful write....bittersweet, yet certainly from the soul of love...yours! Yes, change is inevidable...but to love like this compliments us for the rest of our lives.  

Hugs

It sucks too right?  Sometimes time and circumstances do change us and our relationships with others, and that is why I guess it creates new ones?  Here's to meaningful relationships of all kinds.  NICE!

     
Merry Christmas To You And Yours

There is such a beautiful melancholy in your words, dear Dixie ... that place is a healing place.

Love and hugs.
