How Did We Get Here

Have you ever truly loved another
love so much you begin to smother

love so deep they could do no wrong
now you can't even get along

How did this happen you may wonder
as you foolishly begin to blunder

Let you be is all you ask
I'll just hide behind my mask

Interesting thoughts that you have penned..We all in long term relationships reach points that are not the best..That is when one has to work harder..One thing that always helps is to come up with one thing positive that you can say about that person now and remember some of the positive attributes of the person from times in the past and forget the negative think on the positive..Sara
