Broken

when i first met you, i thought that was it 

the sharing of smiles

the glances across the room 

i was besotted with you.

i truly believed it was going to work 

the holding of hands 

the locking of eyes

i believed that it was us against the world 

and now it’s broke 

hope will forever remain 

the intertwining melodies of our lives 

your necklace that i still wear 

our paths may cross again some day 

but for now it’s broke 

broken by you

and me too
