I never would have thought that
there'd be a you and me.
It wasn't plausible.
It wasn't possible.
How did it happen at all?

But out of the star-crossed sky
fell an opportunity.
It was wonderful.
It was special.
It was magic.
I "knew " you and you "knew" me
There was an undeniable "connection"

It made my life
such a blissful state of euphoria.
My eyes sparkled.
My soul danced.
My heart rejoiced.
And I loved you so much.

And now that you're gone
I wish there was something in its place.
I want a new dream.
I want a new heart.
I want to hope again..

But mostly,
I'm feeling the pain of loss.
I remember happy moments
when we loved and laughed together
and think there'll be no more.
I remember little thoughts of you and sigh 'cause you're gone.
I remember my contented heart and cry because now it's broken.

And now it's all gone,
I can't help but miss you.
For every wonderful thought of you…
an empty memory looms
of your soulful eyes
your winning smile
and the sound of your voice in the dark
while I lay dreaming in your arms..

And the only thing that does still remain is
that I still love you....

Koko,
  It's hard to move on after an exceptional relationship, you've expressed this so well!

KoKo~

'And now that you're gone
I wish there was something in its place.
I want a new dream.
I want a new heart.
I want to hope again..'


Wrapped up in the heart of you
is a chance for something new.
I would wish you happiness in finding it.
