Our Story

How did we get to where we are
Why did our story have to end
I wanted to give you all my love
But wound up losing my best friend

I held you tightly for a moment
I tried to make you see
While you were promised to another
Your heart belonged to me

We shared a brief encounter
But then you turned away
And now we hardly talk at all
With so much left to say

Someday when all the stars align
Our paths may cross again
And at the crossroads where we meet
Perhaps our story will begin

Perhaps this story will begin, with the one your heart longs for. It's a possibility though- that these moments you desire, are not meant to be. If that is the case. Leave your heart open, because you never know when the right one will find you. I like this. "Someday when all the stars align" Such a beautiful thought. Keep wishing on a star, and wait for your dreams to come true. ~ Brandy
