Poem #67 Memories

Watching the movie Pretty Woman in flight,
Going to Florida to celebrate our anniversary right;
I feel all alone, singly braving so many years of fights,
Seems to me, we will never see the future that we dreamed of so bright.

While these thoughts sway in my head, I cry  a puddle,
Our marriage lacked, the team spirit and the bonding huddles;
So many years I lay alone in bed, craving loves cuddle,
I fear there are too many things out of line, all our hopes are now in a muddle.

I cherish the memories of the fun days, when we first met, 
Fondly remember them I will, how can I forget;
Those days of being in love, the happy times I will never regret,
Thinking of the golden days, still makes my eyes wet.

We made each other a priority, and dreamt many a dream for our future,
Somewhere along the line, our relationship lacked the necessary nurture;
Unconditional was no longer, the description of your love or your nature,
Maybe you should have taken more time, to let your thoughts mature.

You changed your mind, on what mattered to you the most,
I was left all alone, living life like a ghost;
We could no longer team up, and our loves battles were lost,
This is not what I want to remember, when I think of our past.

So I have decided to give myself a much needed break,
Deliberate amnesia, and the bitter memories forsake,
Forget I will the dreary recent past and make,
The old days, when love wasn't lost, a treasured keepsake.
