I woke this morning
all my thoughts were of you,
like a flip book before me
I saw my life through.
The tears kept falling
and I didn't know what to do,
my choices were many
captured under the blue.
The experience is the lesson
on this path we call life,
some were awfully delightful
and others didn't feel quite right.
I don't know what to think
was this love of mine real?
I held it deep in my heart
and there you will find it still.
Everyone has a story and some
books are bigger that is true,
but as each chapter comes to and end
I find myself reviewing the one of you.
It could have been much different
and I could have walked away,
but the reasons are so many
while infused in a certain way.
From a child I carried the sorrow
as a woman I quickly put it away
only to find another heartbreak
would follow me to this day.
The song that broke the silence
took me to another time and place.
there I could find your smile
and the love that made my heart race.
I stayed awhile in the moment
I felt as if you were here,
something changed inside me
and the strength to get thru appeared.
I snuggled under the blanket
and I wished the sorrow away,
I'm here to celebrate a love
that is in my heart to stay.
