Before and after
Joy at finding love
Wonder at the feeling
Touching your soul, finding it open and receptive
We were in the same place
My head on your chest
Listening to your heart beat
Reading your thoughts, feelings, hopes,
love and need for me in print
Pouring out of you
Hearing your ache for me
Missing me
Wanting me
Saying you wanted to grow old with me
Then
I allowed myself to believe, really believe
Loved you unconditionally
Openly
Totally
Completely
With my whole heart, soul & body
Allowed myself to feel my need for you
Now and always
Shared that with you
Shed tears
Missed you so
Still believed we were in the same place
Only to find
A minefield of words
My hope and dreams for the future
Now gone
Still trying to understand
How it became
Before and after
