The Love That Was

The heartbreak you speak of doesn’t end
The places we were....so this message I send.

The trails we ran on, the views we saw.
The memories fresh, and still so raw.

The songs I hear, 
To us were so dear.

Slow dance we did, 
As well as the jig.


You must understand that I sometimes still weep,
For the love that we had, that still is so deep.

So move on if you must, but remember this,
That old photo of us, I will always kiss......
