Only Human - a Conversation

Her: Whatever I've done, whatever I"ve said to cause you to be screwed up in the head, I'm sorry. Him: Whatever I didn't do, whatever I didn't say to make you feel lonely and gray, I'm sorry. Her: Tomorrow may come and it may not. Time is something we don't know we've got. Him: Don't give up on goodness and light cause it's still there though out of sight. Her: Think of the times we cried and we laughed and said things that made us feel daft. Him: Remember the kisses, the hugs and the love shared with our children sent from above. Her: Then when they look back and remember me and you they'll know that we were only human too. By: Carole O'Terry Duet Copyright: Aug., 2016 "All Rights Reserved"
