When I first met you I saw pain in your eyes and felt compassion in your heart.
I realized then the we were a match. But you thought otherwise. It took a while to realize that it was true.
I too share the painful eyes and compassionate heart. But because we both had so much pain and compassion, we drove each other apart.
We started caring more about the pain and who could cause more. We managed to push aside the compassion that had brought us together.
It wasn't all at once. Slowly, day by day, we chipped away at each other with our pain. When we should have used our compassion of love to help relieve our pain.
On that fateful night I still remember everything. Even though I wasn't able to look into your eyes, I still saw your pain.
When I first heard your voice it scared the hell out of me. I felt the pain that radiated through the phone, from your voice.
But in doing what you did that night, showed me that you hadn't forgotten about the compassion that you had for me.
In the years that we were together, we grew apart. There was a dramatic change.
Even now as time has gone on, we still have our pain & compassion for each other.
