When We Were Parted Poem by Chantal Lammerts

When we were parted…

The wind rustles through the trees,
The pain, more than conscience sees.
Hold aside by every soul,
We’re slowly losing our control.

Our souls united as one,
Our bodies far apart,
First thought, then done,
Trying to fix a broken heart.

Years and years had gone by fast,
Trying to reveal the one that’s caused.
Our lives to separate, our hearts to break,
Willing to forgive that one mistake.

Life has past, worlds went by,
Our hope lives on, goes up high.
Love, at last, never dies,
Even when the red rose cries.
