I spent the day with you
Not in person but in mind
And in every single thought
It was you my heart did find

I spent the day with you

I miss the feel
Of liquid love
It’s the only thing
I can still think of
I miss the days
Of never being alone
The feel of a warm touch
Melding with my own
I miss the passion
Found in a kiss
And still wish there was a way
To bottle bliss
I miss the life
That I once knew
When I didn’t have to live
Without a me and you

I’m still trying to forget
Sweep the rubble under the mat
Dust off the cushions
Where you once sat
But the ruins still stand
Weathered by all the storms
And my heart still feels
Ambivalent and torn
I pray that one day
The past will be buried deep
But the mountains which remain
Seem almost too steep
And I wonder where we’ll be
In the years ahead
Surely scaling those mountains
Or be lost instead

She put him to shame
With her hypnotic fame
He cast insults
While she hurled blame
One final blow
Finished their toxic game
Sending her back
To whence she came

There was always comfort in his words
Both spoken and eloquently written
And she cherished every stolen moment
For with him she was quite smitten
There was crystal clear evidence
That he loved her with all his heart
And it seemed she had felt the very same way
From the first words he did impart
There was never a doubt in her mind
About any potential hidden motivations
For she could read between the lines
In all their semi-periodic conversations
And as the years shuffled along
She knew for certain he was the one
For a light shone so brightly in his eyes
Which caused her heart to come undone
Never had she been so sure
Of what love was and all it meant
Until that day he happened along
Falling into her life by pure accident
And even to this day
She still feels the very same
For once two souls align
A heart can easily be claimed
