Our Names In the Sand -Part 2

I was young when we met Thought a lifetime we would get I enjoyed going out On vacations all around I loved to laugh You said I was a gas I made you smile If only for a while Didn’t stay happy very long Something was dreadfully wrong Wish I saw it in the beginning You never looked at us as winning Had your own agenda Eventually would upend us You became a grump Always saying humph Pushing me away Anger on your face You never dreamed of forever Only to be free as the weather Three years after I hoped to write our names in the sand I found out that grains don’t stand
