Never Thought

By Athena C. Beauchamp

I never thought we would drift apart.
I thought we loved each other.
I feel so empty.
The love and affection 
we shared 
gone... 
Like the leaves in the fall.


All I ever wanted was to be loved.
Unconditionally, 
just truly loved...
I do not ask for much. 
I just never thought
as I watched you walk away...

My mind is racing with thoughts.
Do I love him?
Does he love me?
My heart is broken 
my dreams gone
every inch of hope lost...

I have given all that I have
My heart
My soul
My life.
To you the man I love.

Now it is in the wind
we will see if it comes round again...
