Broken Vows

I kept my vows; faithful and loyal
I gave you my heart; trusted and hoped
I built my life around you; giving and sacrificing
I thought you were my friend; loving and caring

There was a time when we were on the same path; it was ours
Until slowly a wedge began to separate; our paths began to divide
Your path was dark; it was not a road I could follow
Life choices led us apart; you on one path and me on another
The trust I knew was shattered like glass; thousands of razor sharp visons of her
The lies I discovered were etched in stone on the walls on my mind; constantly replaying
The betrayal I felt was so intense; my lungs could not find enough air to breathe

On my path I find that I am not alone; God carries me at times
I will eventually build a new life; although the journey may be long and hard
I know there may be times when I miss you; but I will only be missing the old you
I realize now that giving up on us does not show weakness; letting go is acutally harder

As my journey continues I pray that I will find truth, loyality; and maybe even a small ray of happiness
Time will slowly begin to mend this heart; gathering stolen time like wild flowers in the meadow
Until memories will be all that is left of us; a dusty photograph buried among many frozen in the past
