These words are so very hard for me,
I just don't know where to start.
It maybe impossible in just a few verses,
to find the key that will open your heart.
What we have is precious,
indeed, it is a very rich vein of gold,
and I'm looking forward to our future,
and our future verses, as yet unwritten and untold.
We'd text each other our daily verses,
we'd share our innermost thoughts and desires,
our secrets, we had that much trust in each other,
and truly, we were the spark in each other's wires.
<Suggested Title>
Keys
These words are so very hard for me,
I just don't know where to start.
It maybe impossible in just a few verses,
to find the key that will open your heart.
I remember a time (not so long ago),
we both happily sang the same song.
What the hell happened?
Where on earth did we go wrong?
There was a time when you loved me,
and I loved you right back,
we were lovers walking hand in hand,
walking down life's meandering track.
And then you proposed to me,
and I dreamt of wedded bliss,
never imagined the heartache,
never thought it would come to....this.
I know that there's another woman,
and that simply must end,
because I want to be your wife forever,
I want to be your lifelong friend.
And triangles are messy affairs,
one side too many for a straight line.
So, please go and pray, test your faith,
and ask the question: "Am I doing fine?"
<Name> was borne out of our love,
proud and tall, or belittled and small?
<Name> needs your love and guidance,
and did our marriage vows mean nothing at all?
<Number> years is a long, long time,
too much to simply just throw away.
This is the first day of the rest of our lives,
so let's make it a rather special day.
Because I still love you so much,
and I know that <Name> does too,
he needs a father in his life,
and he just needs to be close to you.
So, I would like to bury the hatchet,
forget our sins of the past,
and start again on our journey,
this time we'll both make the journey last.
We haven't slept together for three years,
and I literally ache for you deep inside,
I've cried me a river with you not lying there,
and my feelings have got no place left to hide.
And the ache I have for you,
is real and comes from deep within.
So, can't we just start over again?
Can't we both learn how to begin?
Our love sprung out of our friendship,
all those many, many years ago,
and that love needs some nurturing,
in needs to find room to grow.
I know that I'm no angel,
and I haven't done everything right,
but let me make it up to you,
and let me hold you close tonight.
Let's unlock the love in our hearts,
hide and seek is a game that we've played,
you see, we need to find those keys again,
because they're not lost, they're just mislaid
These present verses are just for you,
I've had them especially penned,
just words from the soul,
from the soul of a faraway friend.
