When our journey began, no idea where it would lead.

Threw caution to the wind left nature to proceed.

In nurturing our friendship, feelings grew within.

Didn't take long, we were more than friends

Once our relations transitioned, the physical sense

That we felt inside, grew even more intense.

There were the good times we lived loved and laughed

Not for one moment we thought they wouldn’t last

We did the good things that give love a chance

walks along the beach, dined danced and romanced.

We went every place, did every thing together

feeling which we wished would last forever.

Then came our sad times, things between us changed

the world we knew, was slowly being rearranged

We reached a crossroad, to decide what route to take

Preserve the friendship left or make a clean break.

Choices aren’t that simple, I’ve come to discover

How do we go back to friends, once we were lovers.

Memories in my mind make it hard to absolve

how two lovers once can that easily dissolved

It's one of those feelings I must reconcile

It must admit this is going to take a while.

In my conceding of you as a friend again

My heart sighs; what a journey it has been.
