While you smiled. .....

I noticed tears in your eyes.....

shining ...shimmering. ....

tethering on the edges of .....

love and reality. .......

emotions. ....overwrought

wan ...and pale........

almost letting go......

of you and me........

to be together. ...no more. ...

.

While you smiled. .....

I was there. ....

holding on to some hope......

ceaselessly... endlessly. .........

to fragments of memories. .....

broken. ...shattered. .....

wistfully. ...wishing. ...believing. ..

when everything else. .

made no sense. ......

even the resolute resolve.....

of life's stony disbelief. ....

or ...is it your's ......?

in us.....of our love's being....

.

All this......

while you smiled.....

I still cannot understand....

the reason why. .....
