i forgot ta' dot the i

i been lookin' back
at you & me
back when
we were "WE"

tryin' ta' see
our memory
clearly
reflected
in Reality
not refracted
by how
i wanted it ta' be

sometimes were happy
sometimes were sad
sometimes were good
sometimes were real bad

sometimes we could
sometimes we couldn't
sometimes we would
in the end, guess, we just wouldn't

i know i shouldn't
but, i still ask why?

what happened ta' you & i
guess, really, it's easy ta' see
when you & me
when we were "WE"
i forgot ta' dot the i

i was only a slash
a dash
upside down
a hash mark turned around

there was no "i"
in our "WE"
guess,
there was no me
in "ME"

guess
that's why,
i forgot ta' dot the i.

It is sad when we think we have done the right things for the sae of "we".. but it does take two who was to be a "we" for it to work. I think your poem expressed this all to well.. been there.. hope i never have to do it again.
