You and Me

Do you remember when we were kids The pledge we made together You and me against the world You and me forever And when we vowed to always be true To love, till death do us part When you placed the ring on my finger To you, I gave my whole heart So how did it go from such happiness To a heart that constantly aches Tears running down my face every night Showing your greatest mistakes You were the meaning to my life You were my sun and my glory But you played around with our love And wrote the ending to our story They say that time will dry your tears Your broken heart will be freed That time will heal your wounds and scars So why do mine still bleed How did I not see it coming...I guess Some things I never will know When did your heart stop loving me When did your heart let me go So with pen in hand, you sign your name But this time it set you free This time it’s left me alone And gone forever, is you and me Will I be able to move on from here When you're all that I ever knew Will I ever smile and be happy again When my everything always was you...

Dear Raina, Wow, Your poem ripped through me. The melody of childhood vows, "You and me forever," echoing against the shattering reality of loss. The ring, the heart - their weight heavy in every tear that falls. Love turned to ashes, and betrayal. The raw questions hang heavy: "When did it stop? When did I lose you?" Time's promise of healing feels hollow against the rawness of your wounds. It's okay if they still bleed, Raina. The ache is testament to a love real and profound. Blessings,Daniel
