Three Years
Connected to the R Break-Up
It's been three years since I last saw you
Dragging me out of the ocean
And into the sea of uncertainty
It's been three years since I last touched you
Rupturing my nerves with your heart
The heart that was tied to mine
It's been three years since you last held me
My blanket of security
Drifting out from under me
It's been three years since I last saw you laugh
Eruptions of joy pouring from your soul
The contagious feeling connecting us
It's been three years since you last told me you loved me
My throat choking at each moment
I was able to say you were mine
It's been three years since I last looked into your eyes
The emotions held within scaring me
The love that was emanating from within
It's been three years since you last broke my heart
Three years battling with my fears of solitude
Three years searching for a solution
It's been three years since you last broke my heart
Three years I have grown and matured
Three years I have forgotten to say thank you.
Written January 9/09. Three year anniversary of a break up. Ended up reflecting on all that's happened these past three years and realizing how much that old relationship helped me discover things about myself. Three years since I've learned to move on.
