The Breaking Point
I reread all the words I have wrote to you these past few years
and I can feel the passion and love that we once shared.
I want to know
where did it all go
and why isn’t it still there?
and why can’t we bring it back?
Can love and passion really disappear
just like that?
Surely it can’t.
or can it?
I just can’t wrap my mind around it all.
When was the point when it all started to fall?
I’d give anything at all.
Absolutely anything.
I’d sacrifice anything at all
to take that point away.
so that it never would have fallen.
so that neither of us would be broken.
