"Suspended In Time"

My thoughts are suspended in time

When you were me and I was you and we were one

When we believed forever equaled you and me

Time has taught us the complexities and struggles life can bring

Remembering when your smile brightened my darkest cloud

Your hug drowned out my woes

Your words caressed my worries away

I didn’t see the storm clouds that were coming before the sun could shine again

Playing house and acting grown, still walking in the unknown

Love… a word we tossed around without knowing the price we would pay when we used it

Driven by emotions that love making brings… is it good to you baby?

What happens when reality sits in and the love making isn’t enough?

Harsh words begin to roll off our tongues like water…hold up, I thought you loved me?

You didn’t come home last night; yeah right you slept at your boy’s house.  Guess you couldn’t remember you way home

I lay in the bed alone letting these tears roll down my face; the aching in my heart won’t let me sleep

Is this really you and me? My forever love…but baby you promised me!

Now my anger prevails and clouds my judgment…I’m doing things that aren’t even in my character

Trying to escape the pain and serve up what you’ve been dishing out

Your memory returns to you and now you want to love me again, you say you can’t live without me

The one you took for granted, your ride or die, your life line, your love… that was ME

This wall around my heart is too strong for even your love to tear down

Brick by brick, layer by layer…anger and pain replaced love and devotion

Here we stand at the cross roads, do we turn left or right? Walk hand in hand or go our separate ways

Can we forgive and go through this life together again? Or is this the END?

I VERY MUCH LIKE THIS ROMANTIC WORK OF YOURS!!! ANY HEART MOVES AT HEARING OR READING THESE LOVELY WORDS, BRAVO!!!

Poetry is what is lost in translation.
