Our Song

It was a dark day when I realized we were never going to be together again. As if the storm had already passed and we were now living in the aftermath. We don’t speak, we only knew the truth from our perspectives. Instead of trying to understand each other, we were too busy arguing our feelings and attempting to get a point across. Thus leading us into an abyss of misunderstandings with a mist of anger. We used to communicate like a song communicates its meaning - gentle and clear. In the end, we don’t sing our songs anymore. We ignore each other because the silence is easier to bear than the conversation. It’s as if we never knew each other at all and our worlds were never one, we’re simply strangers who seldom long for the connection we once shared. Reaching out occasionally to see if the song is still the same we typically find ourselves in the same place we once were; estranged and confused.

Our song didn't sound the same but I still was reminded of the old version. The version of our song that could move mountains and change our lives. You don't hear it the same and neither do I but my heart will always hold a special place for you.

The place in my heart you hold could never be altered or broken. It can only be mended, with the words or affirmations that you choose to fill my heart with. At this time, there are no words that hold kindness or security for a future.

So with a heavy heart, here I am writing this excerpt about our love song. ]
