How did it happen
the start of forever
I closed my eyes
thinking of never
One at a time
my days passed me by
the past still with me
living the lie
It felt like a dream
I did not know why
I must be asleep
my eyes closed tight
I woke from my slumber
you lay by my side
a vision appeared
my eyes opened wide
As time passed by
I finally could see
that forever was real
it had started for me
