I used to think I loved you.
That’s when everything was free,
Our lives weren’t
wrapped up in controversy.
We used to look inside
each other’s eyes
let the hours go by
not really thinking about anything else,
except that moment
when we could travel
deeply into
one another’s lives.
I used to think that forever
meant together
Then, one day you woke
decided your life
was no longer part of my own.
I used to think I loved you,
and then I woke
to a morning dawn
and realized
this time was
no longer my own
only my fantasy.
