It Seemed

It seemed her life was falling into place,
She had it all, family, faith, dreams,
And a love she thought they both shared.
It seemed he was the one,The one she waited for all her life,
The one she prayed for, dreamed of
The one God would unite her life with,
To erase all past heartaches and pain.
It seemed there were no worries,
No more sorrows or tears,
God had answered our prayers,
Answered the confusion and mysteries of love.
It seemed the hardships were over,
When really they had just begun.
It seemed they were the perfect couple,
So strong, romantic, so full of love,
Through all his troubles, she was there,
She stood beside him through it all.
It seemed they had a future together,
So much to live for, so much to do,
It seemed they cherished each other more than life itself.
And as quickly as everything came together, everything fell apart.
It seemed he was just drifting,
He needed space he said,
But as time wore on, his motives were clear,
He wanted to put an end to it all.
It seemed he was never home,
Could never answer her phone calls,
It seemed she was forgotten.
It seemed she took it easy,
Packed up the memories, dreams and left,
Moved to the end of what had seemed like the beginning,
And with her she took dreams of a future with him,
And memories of a love that had seemed undying.
It seemed there was so much to live for,
Now the longing for life was gone.
He left her empty of dreams and of his love,
He left her with their love burning in only one heart
