Shattered Dreams

Once upon a time
You were here.
Our fairy tale ending
Was in sight.

I lay in bed,
Haunted by memories
Of a future
That was never to be.

Visions of hard flesh
On soft skin.
Warm lips meeting
In the throes of passion.

Too long had I waited
For love and trust
Happiness forged from sorrow
Joy pulled from pain.

Now, endless nights
Of whispered promises
Have given way
To shattered dreams.
