I thought I had you
I had the best of you
From the laughter to the tears
The joy and the pain
I had everything with you.
The kind of certainty you get once in a lifetime, I thought I was blessed with it in you.
For a new time to come
For something that touched and loved
I believed in anything and everything,
My eyes saw the purity of what existed then.
And what more was to come
It was fragile and untouched
I protected it with both my hands
I kindled it with warmth, care and affection and all I had got.
You too tried your best,
In the process, we made memories
Irreplaceable, unforgetful
But my hands were forced to set this love free, and everything I believed in
And now im left to protect is the memories we made,
For they are precious
And the only sign of our love,
Of you and me, together as one.
I try not to let them fade or rust
Cuz they give me the hope of what was once
We had the certainty of once in a lifetime,
But we lost that to everything else.
