Then and Now

I used to look deeply into your eyes and fall,
loosing myself in the endless pools of blue.

Now, I look into your eyes and see only you.

I used to want to loose myself in you,
become what ever it was you thought I should be.

Now I am just me.

I would have walked through fire,
gained a hundred thousand pounds all just for you.

Now I find I have sight enough to see,
I can be happy without loosing myself to anyone.

There was a time when I lived to be held in your arms,
from one moment to the next all I felt
and thought was how to make you happy,
I was never complete without you near.

Now, I am an entire person
Who I am is who I always wanted to be.

Sadly we had to part for me to become,
who I am, a whole person.

Then I could never imagine just being your friend.

Now I can not imagine us as more.
