WHAT COULD'VE BEEN

Debbie for you I will forever have love
you my sweet I shall forever think of
Forced to suppress feelings elevated desire for you
impeding circumstance always reason I had too

We were supposed to be ONE together
passion we shared I couldn't find in another
I believed we'd inevitably share my last name
that never coming to fruition both are to blame

Our relation contained magic and it's demise so sad
It hurt deep settling for less than what we should've had
Your sudden diagnosis a devastating slap in the face
I hope you're where you believed is a heavenly place

I didn't just lose my love I lost my best friend
'What could've been' I will ponder til my end

So sorry for your loss. This gives me quite a bit of insight as to why your beliefs have changed and you feel the way you too. I too loss the most important person in my life - my mother. However, I'm told it's a different relationship and it's not the same. I beg to differ - you have lost the most important person in your life no matter what the relationship is.

Praying you will find the new love of your life - not that you will forget the past love - she will always be with you. Take care.

Kathy hug
