The Way We Were Poem by ANNE P LadeeAnne MURRAY

I'll remember you always
Holding the memory of you, of us
so deep within my heart

In the years to come...
those remembered moments...
when I hear the echo of remembered tears
I'll recall the gift of love we shared

We tried to love...
amidst the pain and sorrow
that time and life dealt us

And so...

My heart goes on, occasionally stirring up
dusty old dreams, smiling memories
Of you, of me...
And the way we were
