I remember what it was like to watch you sleep in the morning light,
Angelic was that handsome face was yours as it had been kissed gently by the sun.
I used to wipe the bangs from your eyes just so that it would startle your breath.
It was a peaceful time when we were in love.
I love the way you smile at me even though time has passed.
I lied when I said I didn’t the that look in your eyes.
The one that always brings me to my knees.
You took my breath away that day.
I know our time has passed and new commitments have been made.
I sit here reminsing of things that had come to past.
And the dreams that were lost, shattered upon the ground.
You kept your respect for me and what we once shared.
Since that day I have thought long and hard of what I feel.
I realized I grieved the life that was ours, the moments lost in time.
You didn’t come back to reclaim what was yours.
Though the thought had crossed your mind.
The ones that have followed from your wake have quailites that remind me of you.
All different facets of the one that stole my heart and tried to give it back.
I realize now that even though there are many things that still bind us.
There are things that no one can take away.
The peace I found in my heart knowing that you still loved me.
The happiness in being a friend in your life again,
The respect you showed me when you resisted yourself.
The ability to let you walk away but not out again.
