I put the tape in and push play
The wheels spin
and the song begins
Your song
Our song
The song that was once
The song of my heart
The melody of my love
Telling the story of our love
In music and in rhyme
A love that I thought
Would last forever
Until the day you stopped
Singing your part
And I was left humming the song alone

And now, the words begin again
"I believe in you...
in my heart..."
And I turn off the tape
Not wanting to hear
The words of that
Melody
Again

passion is life. . . ~Diana

Passions Voice, this is so powerful. the line:

until you stopped singing your part

Wow, that hit me right where my memory recalls. Well done!
