A Distant Memory

I know that I’m a distant memory
   and you have found another 
       I don't regret loving you
  A piece of my heart will always
    belong to you and you alone
    You taught me how to love
          with my entire being
             And for that I will
                 always be
                   grateful

I think that we have all been there. Yet it will always feel as though we are the only ones.

Hello Alexis. People come across our paths for many reasons and at the right time too. Your words of a love lost is written and expressed wonderfully. Well done and displayed.

A distant memory maybe but a memory all the same, just as he is and the love felt is remembered by you. I am sure the same goes to his side as well. Nicely expressed Alexis.
