What Was

Suzanne Mondoux · 30 June 2020

What was the point of us, of our story You and me together always, now it’s ended What were those words you said to me, you said you meant Where are they now, what was the truth of them What was this life you imagined, what was the truth of this

What was done, pales in comparison to what was said Is this the truth of you, hidden from me Hidden for you, what was true of you I close my eyes to the pain I feel I know your heart, what was it I knew of you

What was it I said so long ago, can only be and do our best So forgiving such words well meant A life together in the arms of another What was forgotten, what was needed Only yesterday you were in love with me

What was this feeling you let me feel What was this kiss so lovingly embraced What was it you let me see What was this life we lived Only yesterday you said you loved me

What was the feeling of those words Tears of joy, no more What was this love you feel no more
