Said and Done

Over! When, how, where was I when the dream had come? When it's all said and done it's the emptiness that stays. Life moves so fast, quick in the years that pass. What was I thinking? We had thought our time was forever full of the laughter and tears treasured, every day a joy and pleasure each word and hug tenuously measured; time doesn't wait and we can miss the moment when we hesitate then suddenly it's over regrets too late, smile for me, just once more when love takes away the pleasures of life and everything is said and done and love slips away, gone.
