Once Upon A Time Poem by Deborah Cromer

I remember happier times from the past and after
Re-living the warmth, the magic and the wonderful laughter
Thinking of how perfect it all used to be, so long ago
When everyday offered so much love and goodness to know

We loved, we ventured, together we sailed the sky
So often my heart would be so full, so happy, I would cry
By the grace of God we met and as two we spent our hours
Sharing days filled with passion, our feelings joined by powers

You would hold me, touch me, kiss me and take my hand
What a life we lived as the world turned and grew so grand
I miss your touch, I miss your voice and even your scent
Now I look for miracles, not knowing where anything went

You once told me it would never end, we would always be
Only us forever, only us was all I could see
I miss you now and only wish I knew where you were
Through memories and thoughts I mix and stir

The music still plays the same songs, especially in my heart
Why did it end, how did we not stay together, why did we part
Was it you, was it me, or was it just our destiny
I would cherish all answers forever, if there were any
