I thought about you today-

It’s been a such a long time

Since I let you slip away-

From me, but not my memory.

I saw a picture from the past-

We thought the smiles and laughter

Would somehow always last-

But we grew apart and disappeared.

You are happily married now

With children of your own-

I followed my dream to the big city

Where I ended up all alone.

I guess dreams do come true -

But the ending don’t turn out right

As the snow quietly falls-

On another silent night.
