This is how it was.

This is how it was when we spoke to each other,

when we talked and laughed and graced each other with smiles..

This is how it was when we walked with each other,

when we held hands and together gazed at the stars..

This is how it was when we looked into each others eyes,

when our sadness turned to joy and our pain into rest..

This is how it was when we loved.

This is how it was on that day.

This is how it was still.

This is how it was in my dream.

At least for me.

It was never in her to share it with me.
