I Saw…

,

I saw you smile today…
You and I were talking and the conversation was delightful
We’ve been talking for a while now and it makes my heart full

I saw you shocked today…
When I got down on one knee to ask you to be my only
I knew it to be true. You couldn’t believe it…it was lovely

I saw you frown today…
You didn’t like what I did or lack thereof
I’m still learning you and you me. We just need to concentrate on our love

I saw your phone today…
Different conversations with past, present and future lovers
I do my best to keep it moving and to hold it within

I saw your empty hand today…
You were upset and took off what I gave you…Set it on the dresser…
You’re blaming me and I’m confused. What’s causing this to get messier?

I saw your key today…
The key to your own place to do whatever it is you want
So easy it is for you to go. Was I ever what you wanted?

I saw your social media today…
Looking for a hint of regret or anything at all
Maybe there could be a clue as to what caused our fall

I saw a smile today..
And it was my own… The sadness, stress, and weight has melted away
I’m remembering who I am before I ever saw you smile that day

    Gosh, this made me emotional. You used so few words, but said…everything; everything that happened over a couple years time. Beautifully done. And I’m glad you found yourself again. I’m incredibly proud of you.
