What we had
“WHAT WE HAD”
Our path was foggy,
But somehow , we made it clear.
We built something new,
Something that filled our hearts.
It touched every edge of us,
Left no part untouched.
We were in love,
Deeply.
But as we fought to hold on,
I feared we’d slip.
So, I warned myself
Tried to be careful.
But desire took over.
I got lost,
In wanting what felt like the best.
And so did he.
Still, we were in love.
But something shifted.
Feelings began to change,
Regret crept in.
I thought we could fight for it.
But he left.
Now, I long for a day
A day he’ll want me
Like he did in the beginning.
It may take months…
Even years.
But what we had…
It felt like a lifetime.
