Moments of loss is where you found me
In the darkness with shadows all around
You called out to my pain
Promising a moment
Of peace

Though the light shown through the dimness
We connected in those moments
We shared a common heart
A common experience
A union of souls

With time, we bonded
Saw the chance of the future
To share the solace of closeness
The promise of unity

Time , an ever-present enemy
Plotted against the prize
To shear away the dream
Separate the reality from the expectation

Words more words, though, never
Actions, as the present lied
To the future, and the past faded
From view, leaving emptiness
It’s only a result. A byproduct of indifference

Where is the purpose
Where is the hope
Lost in moments spent
Alone

When did the darkness return?
Secrets, like cold drops of acid
Burning away the connections
Threats tearing away the dreams

Stumbling blocks placed in the way
Mere objects, money came to block
Promise, as trust was seared away
Chance, or was it predetermined?

Can love endure? Even unconditionally given? Can caring survive contempt?
When loyalty is offered up as a sacrifice for
personal desire?
Is the broken heart ultimately inevitable ?

When we are told what is coming, should we just accept what we are told? What we are shown.
Is that the point where we must just let go?
What about the promise?
What about the dream?

Are we destined for the pain?
What about our past together?
Have we reached a crossroads of fate?
Can we survive this present where you ask without giving, expect without question?

Do you never wonder if maybe you are wrong?
Question your own motives? Wonder if your viewpoint could have been reached in error?

Will love endure?
Will our dream endure?
Will our relationship endure?
When you act, do you ever
Question tomorrow?
