she is thinking of the days when love was so easy
the long walks on the beach
the dinners at fancy restaurants
meeting his family and seeing his eyes light up when she walked in
the compliments she recieved
the morning calls
the little things that made her smile
their first date and how special she felt
she is dreaming of a ring
vows exchanged
children and baby carragies
cruises to the bahamas
love still in full bloom
she is dreaming of starlight candle lit dinners and
a lineage to see in old age
when she snaps back into reality
she sees herself in her bed alone
she sees his picture imprinted in her heart
but his body is present with another woman
he see him and her walking around with a son
a child that should be hers
she see's him looking at her like he used to eyes all lit up
longing to hold her and for things to be the same
knowing in his head they never will be
he stays with her for his family so he tells her
or maybe because he wants to be with her
she settles for the 30 minute visits when she comes into town just to catch up and say hi because she still loves him
and he settles wih knowing that she is in a different world now and that he cant take back the time that was lost
so he settles for the 30 minutes he gets to look at her face
the 30 minutes he gets to see her smile again
the 30 minutes they have to reminisce about the good ole days
the 30 minutes he has to convince her to give him one last kiss
and he settles for 30 seconds that she gives in and gives him the ast kiss she ever give him again
hoping that it's a lie
they both settle for this last real memory and holding on to the memory of lost and love lost
