we said it a thousand times

even blighted our memories
to never be undone or unsaid
to think of the impossible
being possible, being reality
its unbearable truth strikes
clear through the very soul of me
each tear bids you a somber
and sincere adieu

  2. It makes me sad to read this poem because I know all the pain you have been through over the last few years. Surprisingly, I also feel a sense of happiness now that the hard part is coming to an end - knowing what a beautiful, blessed future that lies ahead of you.

    That's the only comment I have in regards to this poem...other than the fact that it was beautiful. ;)
